What about a fully encrypted peer to peer web?
Let's go Veilid!
Yeah I cheer on this one!
On the other hand I got a different protocol (& implementation up and running) that can be used right away. It's like IPFS but easy to "install" (a double click and a port forward is all that's needed), you are also in control of your data and of course you can change the data without changing the link.
Don't get me wrong, IPFS paved the road. But today we have better ways to do things.
Which protocol ?
Tenfingers sharing protocol, working copy & info on tenfingers.org
Like freenet?
Close, but with the added possibility to change the data (like a website/blog/chat) and not only have static data.
So on this protocol, you can have a website with a link to my website, who has a link to yours. Maybe that doesn't sound crazy cool :-) but filecoin, IPFS etc just does not have that functionality (with them you have a key/link, and it is locked to 1 data. Fix a typo in your text and you have to redistribute a new key/link on the old web or similar, it's totally static), and for me it's a must if you want to provide a functioning "new web".
