The problem maybe is that one cannot invent one system/network per need and expect a sufficient number of users to understand how each one works, how they can use them and trust them so they can fly.
See only the bittorrent network, users have generally no idea what's behind, leading to funny (new) things like https://github.com/Ayms/torrent-live#deanonymizing-the-vpn-peers That's why I thought about https://github.com/Ayms/node-Tor#convergence Sorry for the too short description for now but that's not a vague idea at all, the list of services not being exhaustive and the concept being to be able to build and deploy them easily on top of the Convergence architecture (using browsers and WebRTC). One of the issues being that the standard bodies still do not get that the model of an app inside browsers tied to a domain and associated TLS certificate(s) is an obsolete concept that should be replaced by an entity ID system, different from what is proposed today (ie "securing" for example a WebRTC peer connection via its Google account) Le 02/02/2016 20:38, Meredith L.
