zeronet-conservancy v0.7.8 as another small step towards riza
not all plans go accordingly. as a matter of fact, most don’t. so did
the plan to build riza quickly from scratch. however, the project is
not abandoned and step by step crawls the roadmap.
-
guided evolution (vs rule by decree or democratic centralism)
there haven’t been a lot of public activity on riza lately and we’ll
discuss that in a later, perhaps more personal post, but now let me update
you on one core insight that we’ve reached through this silent period.
it’s really quite simple and perhaps could even be tied to dao or aikido
principles, however let me not get carried away with metaphors too much.

circumvention of site blocks
one of the major goals of riza is effective and easy to use circumvention of
site blocks. one of the most basic ways of how blocks work is by denying access
to certain domains and ip addresses. there are, of course, a lot of methods of
circumventing that, such as vpns or tor, but they require installing additional
software, which is a big barrier in adoption amongst general population. thus,
one way in which riza strives to solve this problem is by giving ability to see
blocked site content with nothing more than a modern browser and finally
empowering regular users to exchange links to blocked sites.

interoperability
today we’re presenting a slightly-darker-than-white paper on plans of riza
interoperability with other networks. a fine, slightly pixelated — by today’s
standards — jpeg instead of thousand words

a quick riza vs 0net comparison
i’m often asked why riza will be a better network and here is a biased comparison to prove it!

announcing riza
last three weeks mark the beginning of a new historic period — where we can no
longer close our eyes and have to bear witness to how lack of access to
information can lead directly to mass murder (colloquially called “war”). free
uncensored speech is not a luxury, but an imperative for peaceful prosperous
life and overall survival of humanity.
thus we cannot postpone any longer and today we announce the development of
censorship-resistant, all-restriction-immune, privacy-protecting peer to peer
worldwide network that will be accessible to everyone. of course, this is not
enough to stop or prevent war, but it is a prerequisite.
