E rave rahi mau taata o te ore e mana'o rahi nei e mea nafea ratou ia tauaparau te tahi i te tahi na roto i te internet, i te mea e te faaohipa nei te rahiraa o te taata i te parau matauhia "i te pae sotiare ad networks” and all kinds of popular messengers already. What they may not realize is that these services are trade-based. Facebook, WhatsApp, Zoom, Skype and the like want something from the users: be it currency, data, or attention (ads). Therefore the communication between people is made at the expense of such trades. This is an issue since the companies behind these tools are more incentivized to get something back from the users rather than provide them with a private, secure and feature rich communication tool. But, are there alternatives to this? Are there trade-free tools to communicate with anyone around the world?

Communication means text, emoji, gifs, group chats, video and audio, or even screen-sharing. So, a lot of tools. The problem with communication is that you may need some central point to receive and deliver messages. Let me quickly explain:

Ana wants to communicate with Bubu. Send text, or images, or voice/video chat, and such. They are half a world apart. They have an internet connection. How can they find each other and exchange information?

If they would use a trade-based service like Facebook, then all they need is a browser (think of it as an “app”), visit a specific website (like facebook.com), register an account with Facebook, and then they can search for each other using the Facebook search for example. They will need a unique ID on that network, so Ana cannot choose her username as “Ana” since someone else has it, therefore she will choose Ana_Banana_Mau. Same for “Bubu”. Her ID is then easier for Bubu to find on Facebook. Ana will also be given a unique URL, something like facebook.com/Aba_Banana_Mau. Now Ana can connect with Bubu via this centralized platform by using an app (a browser) + an account. All the messages, photos, and such that they send to each other are stored on Facebook’s servers, then delivered to the other one. When Ana sends her private thoughts and photos to Bubu, she first sends them to Facebook, Facebook stores them, then they send them to Bubu.

Even if the messages are encrypted, Facebook has the power to still collect data about the users (when they send the messages, from where, and such); Facebook still has the power to insert ads into the messenger; Facebook has the power to force users to pay for this service, and such. That’s because Facebook is the central point and such a great power comes with a great incentive for coercion and abuse. Also, relying on a single central point means that if Facebook disappears, all that Ana and Bubu talked to each other and sent to each other will be lost. Forever.

But we need such “servers” like Facebook to enable communication, else Ana and Bubu cannot find each other in this great sea of Internet. Facebook wants user’s attention (ads), and data in order to let them use their Facebook service to communicate. Facebook can also censor and limit what users share with each other. Therefore Facebook is a trade-based communication tool. Users trade their privacy and data, their attention, and are subject to limitations in terms of communication. WhatsApp, Telagram, Zoom, and pretty much most of these popular communication platforms are trade-based. WhatsApp collects data, Telegram can censor content, Zoom limits you unless you pay them, and so forth.

To reduce the risk of a centralized power grabbing service, we can create “nodes”. Nodes are like servers, but multiple of, and independent. At times nodes can be other users. Let me explain:

LEVEL 1: A GOOD FACEBOOK MESSENGER

Although multiple nodes seem like an excellent solution, there are trade-free communication tools that rely on a central point (server). If these services are supported by donations and they do not have a business model, then it is likely for them to be trade-free. One such example is Signal Messenger that relies on a central server, yet they do not want any trades from the users: no ads, no premium features, no artificial limitations except (perhaps) technical limitations. What Ana and Bubu need is a phone number to create an account with Signal, so that they can find each other and communicate. In this regard Signal is the same as Facebook, only that it is a “good” Facebook that wants no trades from the users. The messages between the Signal users are stored on a central server, but they are encrypted so Signal cannot know what users are doing. Therefore, they cannot censor any content or interfere with the communication between the two.

If the organization behind Signal gets into financial problems, then it is possible for them to push trades to users such as ads, data collection, premium features and the like. Relying on a centralized system can be a weak foundation for a communication platform. However, as long as the service remains trade-free, then it should not matter how that is achieved.

LEVEL 2: MULTIPLE SIGNALS

Ana and Bubu want to communicate with each other. To do that, they use a browser or a messaging application that, at its core, is set up to connect not with one central point like Signal, but to multiple of. Imagine many Signal’s independent of each other. So, say Ana and Bubu use the browser to visit the www.riot.im/app website. Similar to facebook.com, this website allows users to register with a unique ID. Ana and Bubu register. Then they share their ID’s with each other either by using another way of communication (say email or phone) or searching for their usernames in the Riot’s database. In this regards Riot is very similar to Facebook or Signal.

The main difference is that Riot is based on a technology called [matrix] and this [matrix], to put it simply, allows for many clones of Riot anywhere in the world. Ana’s and Bubu’s accounts do not belong to Riot, but to the [matrix] network that Riot is built upon. Therefore if Ana wants to use another messaging app like Fractal, and not Riot, she can install Fractal and log in with the same username and password. Riot is like the shell, and [matrix] is the core. You can change both. If Fractal does not support video calls, then maybe Riot does, so the user can choose what to use. If one has limitations, then other may not. Alternatively you can change the core. Riot promotes their own [matrix] server (matrix.org) to register with. The registration is trade-free it seems. Ana registers there but when she logs in with her ID through Riot, she sees that Riot pushes a notification about the matrix.org paid-service “modular“. She hates ads and such an approach, so she decides to use another free [matrix] server from the many lists available online. She registers with converser.eu and gets rid of that annoying ad, yet having access to the same features through Riot as before. Again, she uses the same Riot messenger but a different “node”. If Ana has the knowledge, she can create her own server (node) and host her own [matrix] so that she makes her own rules, and she can use Riot, Fractal or any other messaging app together with her own [matrix] server. Ana and Bubu have a much greater choice in terms of how to communicate online.

LEVEL 2 communication tool is great. It allows us to choose our “signal”. Variations of such protocols allow for users registered on one server to communicate with users from another server. So Ana and Bubu do not have to register with the same server. And the fact that users with experience can create their own servers means that the power is distributed so no central server can decide and govern over users. Since the LEVEL 2 communication relies on hopping from one node to another, and choosing between this and that, it can become a bit cumbersome for some users. Changing Riot with Fractal, the shell, is super easy, but changing the shell means you have to export your settings (if possible), from one node, and move to another.

LEVEL 3: A HOME MATRIX

What if instead of relying on nodes to register and manage the communication, we only use nodes to connect people and all of the hard work is done on people’s computers? LEVEL 3 is the best, easiest and the most robust trade-free of them all. Ana wants to talk to Bubu. They only need to install an application and register locally, on their computer (choose an username), and then share the uniquely created ID with the other one. That’s it. Now they are connected. But how?

When Ana writes a message to Bubu, her message (encrypted) jumps to all kinds of nodes, such as other users, or servers, that only connect the two. They do not and cannot store anything more than that. They are the phone lines between phones. And the fact that there are so many and randomly distributed around the world, it means that it is nearly impossible to cut the connection between Ana and Bubu. It also means that their communication cannot be censored or limited in any way. Ana can send as many photos and messages to Bubu as she wants. They can video call as much as they want. They can talk for as long as they want and whenever they want. And they also act as nodes. So the more people that join this network, the better. Beautiful. Distributed. Decentralized. Private. Robust. Local. Yours.
