She answered in detail, also about problems with mandatory interoperability in federated environments.
Haugen described the Delete Activity as the main problem.
Another challenge would be #E2EE.
How can we make sure, a Delete is respected by all instances also “if the server was made in Russia”
(according to Haugen [/me: by any dictator]) …
Problems might be solvable. Technically with Object Capabilities and Capability-based Security.
Such needs funding like Open Source and Open Protocols do.
If there is a Fediverse of Trust in the EU – e.g. @nextcloud supports the german Personalausweis [id card] right now and as described by @redchrision :
“when you as an admin were peering with another instance you are showing your set of values,
and if that other instance believes that they are sharing those values, that instance can peer with you”
then instances can also choose not to federate with the facebook stuff …
Any thoughts ?
^ PS
Esteemed Fediverse,
pretty sure that you all watched the full #EU #Haugen #hearing about #Facebook ;)
