TIL: ToSDR is a real service that exists. (See Photo + Link) @vitalik.eth's post about openness and verifiability got me thinking about all adhesion contracts around the world wide web. Those little Terms of Service that literally everybody clicks and nobody reads. (Below) Normally, PII & ToS are fine print buried deep within a site map that live in a canonical footer, but what if they could be more than this? What if they represent a sorting function of philosophical alignment for data controls and governance for your service to be considered. How would this change the way you thought about and positioned them? Perhaps its high time to flip the script… WDYT VB? https://vitalik.eth.limo/general/2025/09/24/openness_and_verifiability.html https://tosdr.org/en/new_service

Today I learned of https://www.opensourceecology.org/gvcs/ which offers open source plans to make all the basic machines you need for a industrial level civilization - diy car or truck for $8000 - cinc machines, aluminum extruder, construction and farming machines, and many more Being able to repair and produce new parts for machinery can make any network state/society more independent and cost effective

I'm writing a small collection of @paragraph articles inspired by two really important blog posts from an Internet OG. 1. 1000 True Fans: https://kk.org/thetechnium/1000-true-fans/ 2. !1000 True Fans: https://kk.org/thetechnium/the-case-agains/ Sharing a glimpse below and welcome any members of /network-states /founders /base /design /dev /fbi /neynar /paragraph /evmavericks /ethfinance (or other channels) to offer public or private feedback. Wanna make sure what I'm dropping slaps. -- 🔥 You’ve Been Paying Rent on Your Own Audience. What if I told you that in 2026, the *fans* hold the keys, not the gatekeepers? Today, 1000 True Fans are more powerful than ever. ☄️ Welcome to the “Rent-Free” Revolution. Fan relationships are the new scarcity, not distribution. Platforms built empires on creator sweat equity—now the tables are turning. 🕵️ Stop Renting, Start Owning. The secret contracts you “accept” are why you work for the algorithm, not the other way around. Next year? We’ll be rewriting the fine print. 🥀 Sharecroppers of the Algorithm. If hustling *harder* just lines someone else’s pockets, you’re not building equity—you’re harvesting likes for free. 🧠 Your Content Is Their AI’s Brain—And You’re Not on Payroll. Every upload is training the robots. Spoiler: It’s lining their pockets, not yours. Time to rebalance the equation. 🦾 Stripe Cannibalizes Itself. When even the middlemen are racing to cut themselves out. You want smaller fees? They do, too—before you do it without them. ⚡️ Four Superpowers Most Creators Don’t Know They Have (Yet). Distribution. IP. Token economics. Hyperfan communities. Why play in someone else’s sandbox when you can design your own game? 🔒 From “Forever Yours” to “For This Purpose.” One click shouldn’t give away your soul (and your AI training rights) forever. Permission gets granular—and programmable. 🧮 1000 True Fans, Three Price Tags, Infinite Optionality. All your bangers now slap that much louder when you make your own rules on your own rails. Social economies are now viable and vibrant. 🎤 From Party Guest to Host. Stop hoping for an invite. Build your own house—and set your own cover charge. Bad vibes? Find new tribes on your same wavelength. 👾 Experiment, Die, Respawn. Permissionless curiosity is the new compounding edge. Every failed launch is a save point, not a Game Over. Power up. Level up. Lever up. 🚦 Don’t Wait for Permission—Design the World You Want. If platforms, VCs, or ads dictate your upside, you’re living in someone else’s timeline. Focus on creating value, not extracting it. https://tortoise.studio/song/based-on-a-true-story-mc-xen-edit

So as much as some folks here on farcaster talk about these ideas that are the next frontier in incubation, innovation, and financial freedom, this part leads me to believe that the people pioneering these moments won’t help any of the above in an inclusive way. Should this find a way to unlock barriers for all, like the idea of network states, and Viva City, then sure. But until then… “I'm also a little bit skeptical and doubt that all the interventions that potentially will be available in the network state will be widely accessible for everyone,” she says. “There might be a scenario where only wealthy people will have access to them initially, and hopefully that will be the case for all of us later. But I don’t know.” https://www.wired.com/story/tech-billionaires-communities/?sourceCode=VisualStory
