I'm likely naive, but I'm very excited about a future that abandons the web and builds on reticulum. But I worry that the same flaws will be replicated out of habit instead of using it as a chance to avoid the dark paths.
Reticulum uses a proof of work "stamp" as a user side defense against not like behavior.

interesting - this looks quite promising. anything that reduces captchas or client blocks while using a VPN is welcome in my books.
i’m not sure what they mean about agents, however. would this mean a human generates legitimate traffic, and that goodwill can then be utilised by a browser agent? and will it be possible to host your own Moderator?
