nbAfter extensive research into decentralized social networks, it is now time for a state of the art 🧵 thread on the subject of #DataSovereignty and its relation to end-to-end encryption and decentralized identity management. For this, I will contrast the two currently most used decentralized social networks protocols: #ActivityPub and #Nostr. #Fediverse #Nomad #Identity #Privacy #E2EE #DPKI #DIDs #SSI 1/11
Therefore, I am confident that in the future with DIDs we will have a component for decentralized protocols that unites the various actors, e.g. with did:orb there is already a DID method that works with ActivityPub and with Chatter Net we have a ActivityPub application that works with an DID method (did:key). Currently, Bluesky with the AT protocol is the only network that uses DIDs in a way to solve the problems I described in this thread (see ATP Specs and did:plc). However, it doesn't have to stay that way. DID methods are already being discussed in the Nostr and ActivityPub community. Anyone who has read this far now has a few clues to further investigate that matter. 11/11
