The 2016 #Censusfail debate should have triggered a national conversation about what we as a people want to happen with our data, but because of the website crashing last time the deeper issues just became a footnote.

It really pisses me off to see people from the big news companies bragging about Facebook not taking a big chunk of their business. This law going through Parliament basically holds ransom every small website that publishes anything news-related, just so they get paid.
“In the case of Capsule, each content creator has their own website — has their own address, like Capsule.Greenwald.com — and then people go there and their first discovery of the mesh is through people that they’re interested in hearing from.”
I had to think about this for a bit, but I think I like this idea as an extension of the current IndieWeb ecosystem. Most people don't want to pay for a domain name or hosting, so I wonder whether Capsule can find a way to enable both groups to interact successfully.
The question for me is, will non-paying servers be able to operate as first class citizens in the federation, with a trusted identity? Will be interesting to watch development.
