Is It Time For a Decentralized Social Network ?
User generated content brought about the shift from mainstream media to social media. The remarkable move made people take control of the content they produce by making it for and distributing it to each other.
The supposedly free services these social media platforms offered somewhat became a major part of the Internet and an important form of human interaction.
It was all good until people started realizing that the services they are using is in somebody else’s hands. Put another way: it became obvious to the users that their personally identifiable and other critical information are being sold because of the terms and conditions they agreed to.
Facebook has a license to use your content in any way it sees fit. Guess you’ve known that by now. Twitter can pass any of your content to any partner organizations for any reason. Dropbox can share your data with “trusted third parties” to provide their existing services. And the list goes on.
Facebook is about to start taking user data from WhatsApp, a backtrack on a pledge to not change its privacy policy when it was bought by Facebook in 2014. The move has been criticized by US-based Electronic Privacy Information Center (Epic) as a violation of a Federal Trade Commission (FTC) consent order which forbids firms from “unfair or deceptive trade practices”.
For monetization purposes, the vast majority of the popular social media services run on centralized architecture in which the third party service provider grants privileges to the end users to use its service. In some cases the service is paid for, but in most cases the service is provided in exchange for viewing advertisements on the platform.
These sites do not allow users much control over how their personal information is disseminated, which results in potential privacy problems.
This lead to an increase in expressed desire of social media users to take more control of the service. It subsequently birthed new forms of decentralized social networks that are all aimed at building solutions to the problems of censorship, privacy and ownership or control over content being created.
In her talk at Decentralize: A Journey Through the Independent Web event hosted by Sónar+D and Austrian festival Elevate as part of the project “We are Europe” in June 2016, activist Katharina Nocun, whose work is focused on the research on decentralized networks and digital policies, gave an analysis of the status quo of some of these new social networks.
“We’ve reached a situation where just a handful of corporations such as Google or Facebook control large part of the flows on the internet especially concerning our private data,” she said.
The Polish-German politician who has, since May 2013, been the policy coordinator of the Pirate Party of Germany, added that it is threatening that such large corporations are in a position to control the situation between her and her friends and how they are using the critical infrastructure of democracy for advertisement.

summary
This is a project that had the product before the ICO. (This little project has been there)
But the promotion within the presale and promotion for the referral is too great. This will affect the price on the floor.
