HTTP has problems, and the Internet is patched by the new protocol?
A new protocol aims to become the core Next Generation Internet or NGI infrastructure that provides a distributed storage environment for large files and allows end-to - end encryption so that the network is always secure.
Distributed Storage Protocol Labs or DSP Labs, saying the web's HTTP-based protocol is prone to problems, expected its launch at the next level of the network.
Although it is fashionable to think that the internet's records, documents, and digital identities are completely under control, DSP Labs argues that this is not the case. Users of the internet are oligarchs who monopolize their empire using this information.
The team has shown how someone who needs to obtain their sensitive files often undergoes "cumbersome procedures" and, even worse, few of us are aware of the full range of information gathered from Google and Facebook like.
A Wrathful Eye Spot
DSP Labs, a subsidiary of Onchain, showed why change is needed and highlighted the astonishing amount of data lost forever – ranging from major news stories, valuable photographs and loved recipes.
The project explained: "The Alexandria Library was burned down two thousand years ago and the world has permanently disappeared from the thousands of valuable documents in history.
It's a human tragedy, everyone knows. But such a thing happens every day on the Internet.
While non-profit projects, like the Internet Archive Foundation, are courageously trying to preserve the whole Internet for future generations, this has been described as a 'impossible task.'
The average life-cycle of the website is 100 days and only 2 per cent of network links live for ever. DSP shared statistics. "When you think about the importance of the web today in culture and information, you know that the numbers are devastating," added the project.
There are no issues here. DSP notes that a file index fault is a big issue, since the HTTP protocol information is found instead of the content itself. A new analysis by Harvard reveals that 49% of hyperlinks do not work any longer. Further worsen the situation, data leakage is a concern and the Internet is "monitored and overcensored."
the way forward
The goal of DSP is to address these problems by ensuring that a user maintains full control of his data and files rather than entrusting it to a centralized organization. In the end, it will facilitate the deletion of information or allow others to view it.
Data leakage risk is reduced through sharding and encryption on decentralized storage protocols, so that even if a malicious actor receives a node, a full document can not be obtained.
Activities between senders and receivers are blurred in order to avoid the surveillance of activities, thereby ensuring full protection of personal privacy.
DSP also aims to achieve "content-based addressing" in the form of "file and data in the network."
Better still, the protocol is much more developer friendly, as various identity, storage and payment components are built and placed into the network to be re-used.
As each part only needs to be installed once, repetitive development work is greatly reduced and developers are able to focus on companies they want to start up.
With new concepts like the internet of things beginning to gain traction, DSP hopes to become "a fundamental new computer network paradigm," and will positively alter a user 's relationship to their data.
