The article argues the importance of a decentralized internet for humanity's future, suggesting it could help achieve a type-1 Kardeshev civilization by ensuring free flow of ideas and commerce, thus helping humanity overcome existential threats. In contrast, the centralized internet is described as a vehicle for control and potential dystopia. The risks associated with centralized systems, likened to Orwellian themes, could lead to the dehumanization of the global population under the influence of malevolent powers. The author emphasizes the urgency of adopting a decentralized framework to safeguard freedom and innovation.
The centralized internet is not evil but very useful to evil people. It will empower a phenotypic revolution, wherein our species will be sublimated by general artificial intelligence.
A decentralized Internet gives humanity a fighting chance at becoming a Kardeshevian type-1 civilization, allowing free flow of speech, ideas, criticism, and commerce.
The alternative is 7-8 billion slaves on this planet. The centralized internet threatens to lure us all into dystopia that George Orwell could scarcely imagine.
In my grandiosity, I argue that unless we embrace a decentralized internet, we risk losing our humanity to malevolent transhumanist elites.
