a Freyja project

The Stack

Three open protocols beneath every Freyja project. Sessionless handles identity. MAGIC handles consensus. Teleportation handles discovery. Together they replace the surveillance layer.

Infrastructure Is Not Neutral

The web runs on protocols: HTTP, DNS, TLS. These protocols are, by and large, not the problem. The problem is the layer above them: the authentication layer, which almost universally requires you to hand over an email address and a password, binding your identity to a company's database.

That one design choice is the root of most of the internet's dysfunction. It means every new service requires an account. Every account is a data point. Every data point is an asset to be sold. The surveillance economy is not a conspiracy. It is the logical consequence of building identity on shared secrets.

Freyja needed a different foundation. These three protocols are it.

“In the hierarchy of non-centralized systems: decentralized, then federated, then interoperable. Interoperability was the norm before the internet consolidated. You don’t need different pens for different notebooks.”
