    Isn’t the current email system kind of a web of trust. Microsoft, Google etc trust each other. But little me and my home server is not part of that web of trust making my email server get blocked.

      Yeah, that’s kinda what my GP post was getting at. But it’s all managed by corporations, not individuals.

        Realistically I don’t see how it would ever not be managed by a corporation. Your average person doesn’t know how and doesn’t want to manage their own messaging system. They are just going to offload that responsibility to a corporation to do it for them. We are just going to have exactly the same system we have now. Just called some else besides email.

        I wish there was a better solution but I am not seeing a way that doesn’t just end up the same as email.
