The summary explores complex dimensions of privacy: secret, private, open, and public, as central themes for collaborative, sensitive, and decentralised digital writing spaces.
It advocates creating nuanced governance and cultural structures that allow for various levels of information sharing, protection, and visibility. These structures mirror human communication rituals and aim to be legally and technologically robust yet user-friendly.
Secret writing (e.g. secret.fish) is encrypted, offline or peer-to-peer, and highly confidential; private writing (private.fish) is member-only but online; open writing is publicly accessible via direct link but not widely promoted; public writing is openly visible and aims for wide engagement. The system supports flexible, secure collaboration within both small communities and broader global spaces.
--- There is a conversation, and a set of tools that are being prototyped and tested - so the text here is the best we can do for a quick summary. if you wish to dive deeper and help design and build these tools and practices then let's meet.
