>only hidden boards could be a wipe-safe harbor - unless all board names will be bruteforced to find survivors.

It's also possible to implement passwords for boards. Boards themselves are barebones right now (just being an address) actually the boards can also be fleshed out with different configurable properties, with configuration settings subject to the same type of moderation scheme as post deletion currently is. Users are free to alter their client or access control logic for this as well, so if you have lots of configuration divergence it could lead to "canonic splintering" of a given board's state type of thing, Even now the semi-hardcoded (in config/validation.json) max filesize is 4MB, but this could be made a board-specific setting (maybe would make more sense if each board has its own files pool in that case). However if you edit this yourself, you will be able to post larger files than 4MB, but other users won't consider those files valid unless they also increase their own allowed limit. >>cd3994cc

>But in a future it can be useful to know what exactly is being deleted and from which channel deletion is broadcasted

This can be logged and possibly stored somewhere. Under the hood Peerbit does mark items that have been explicitly deleted and doesn't just forget about them (there are two things it can do.. "delete" (erase and it was deleted), and "prune" (just erase the data)), but this isn't currently hooked up to the querying logic or anything. A way around that is to store it ourselves or at least log it in the console, or it's also possible to add this custom behavior into the Peerbit aspect of the code itself. >>40183b23 I'm gladdened. Hopefully we can figure out some sort of more simple anonymity solution that works nicely for our case as well so it's easier for people to do.

>Gladden can be governed only by advanced wipers lol

hehe :) >>86a58f5e Yeah... it's also definitely something it seems we have to accept the existence of, and in some cases I think this has already happened. But in a way it's just another form of life sort of thing, humans never truly existed in a vaccum in the sense of, we've always been influenced by and part of and embedded in nature, AI's or self-sustaining automated conversation/digital information transfer is maybe another network to be woven into the biosphere. I sometimes think about how much meaning is being transmitted by birds chirping and insects buzzing, maybe not as intuitively comprehensible to humans as the ones making the sounds themselves.

Long enough board names are essentially passwords imo

>if you have lots of configuration divergence it could lead to "canonic splintering" of a given board's state type of thing

Anarchic standards generation, that would be cool

>but other users won't consider those files valid unless they also increase their own allowed limit

Maybe show file metadata even if file fails vaildation, so people would have reason to enlarge max filesize in their config

I think just --proxy parameter for node would be good enough (nym and tor have local socks5 proxy ports) + people can use whatever connection chaining or mixnet system they're using for visiting gateways. Besides, data replication already messes with identification of original poster. By the way, is peerbit vulnerable for Sybil p2p attack (which is peer topology isolation)? I mean how isolation-proof it's peer discovery works, we have some hardcoded kickstart-peers to start discovery?

They could have some sort of consciousness https://www.cell.com/trends/cognitive-sciences/fulltext/S1364-6613(20)30192-3 + https://fcmconference.org/img/CambridgeDeclarationOnConsciousness.pdf Anyway, AI is directly affecting intellectual side of our existence, which was something unprecedented.

This would be nice. I'm looking into it recently, there should be some sort of setting in the libp2p node to dial things through a given proxy port...

>I mean how isolation-proof it's peer discovery works, we have some hardcoded kickstart-peers to start discovery?

Yeah there are public bootstrap nodes that we use currently. There is also a "direct dial" option on the /home page but its a little tricky to use and you need to have the ports opened/forwarded properly for the node being dialed. But you could use this to connect to "non-public" bootstrap nodes as well and possibly have subnetworks of peers.
