Exactly! That’s the whole point behind PeerBox. Most people already have a machine running most of the time, so why trust a third party to handle your messages? The only reason centralized servers became the norm is to monetize your data or charge you a subscription, all at the expense of your privacy. PeerBox just flips that logic back to where it should be.
I used to be on ZeroNet, which enabled everything to be P2P: blogs, forums, social networks, text chat, messaging, filesharing, code forges even. No servers, and all accessible with one account.
But it never really took off (& of the few people there, too many were the kind kicked off other platforms IMHO for good reason). But I still hope P2P solutions will rise up, so we can avoid all the issues involved with depending on servers. Good luck with PeerBox!
Thanks for sharing that! ZeroNet was a really interesting project, it’s a shame it attracted the wrong crowd because the concept was solid. We share the same vision, P2P is the way forward. Thanks for the kind words and the support!
