It’s an established fact that Facebook doesn’t give a **** about your privacy and for all these years it has just gotten bad to worse. That’s when 4 computer science grads from NYU decided to roll up their sleeves to create an anti-Facebook project from scratch. Called ‘Diaspora*‘, the project is actually an open-source, server-less, personally controlled and de-centralized social network aiming to provide users full control of their privacy.
Diaspora* connects user computers directly, just like the Torrent protocol does. This eliminates the need of a centralized server which implies that none of your private information is stored on a third server. The user is required to install the Diaspora software and has full control of what information to share.
Diaspora*’s modus operendi looks promising but all rests on whether or not the mass switches to the secured and open-source social network.
Social networking along with social bookmarking and online free classified ads is a great way to promote a business or website in these days all around the world because more and more people are now using internet. As the time is passing by, competition in social networks is increasing and this is another new thing which is coming.
