It should be commonplace knowledge that centralisation and internet don't go
well together. Alas, it isn't, as we can see from the desaster we're looking
at with the NSA crisis. Hence in my opinion the Perspectives Project is a
very, very urgent and necessary step forward. However, the DNS itself is
hierarchically ordered and therefore prone to easily-ridden attacks and
vulnerable. If OpenNic used a P2P-based approach I should think it and the
Perspectives Project perfect partners. The way OpenNic works, I don't think
they would accept us with open arms. One first step though might lie in
opening our existing T2 servers to act as notaries as well. That way we may
possibly achieve a win-win situation for both projects, at least for a time.
