Meet ArWeb. Our new app
How this protocol changes the internet
Crackdown on Speech
Donald Trump was famously banned from Twitter. Only to return to the stage, and ban criticism of Israel’s genocides on college campuses.
Europe is getting even worse

You can’t trust Elon Musk, he censored for Brazil.
From Reuters:
My friend lost 17 years of her photos,
When she was banned from Facebook and Instagram.
AI moderators
The worst part is she was banned by a bot. There was no trial, no appeal, just a robot silencing her entire life.
You don’t have to be famous to be demonetized
Everyone knows about deplatforming, but even more common is demonetizing. Google, Facebook, and even Elon Musk’s supposed free speech X, have not only taken down content, but removed people’s livelihoods and income.
Fake solutions
Many platforms claim to be “censorship resistant” but when push comes to shove, it’s just a regular website. Bitchute has to ban many types of content in the UK.
Government domain names are rented, not owned.
The modern internet is highly centralized, but most people can’t avoid it.
Cloudflare, Amazon’s AWS, and Google run the vast majority of websites, which has huge negatives for privacy and free speech. They see nearly all data, and control nearly all content.
Cloudflare & CDNs
In our previous article, we learned that Cloudflare is a CDN or Content delivery network. And most websites point their domain to it. This means they see all your passwords (breaking SSL encryption) and browser fingerprint all visitors. This has undeniable relevance for both free speech and privacy, because they may likely see the sum of all activity in your life.
They see ALL passwords and ALL data, but they’ve been hacked.
From SecurityWeek:
But it’s not just data for governments…
Cloudflare can leak users’ locations on Signal, Discord, or other apps
An attacker can send you a unique image, and then can figure out which CF location you download it from. We covered this in an earlier article
Cloudflare decides what you can say
They have a history of dropping DDoS protection for controversial speech. Do you want this company to decide your fate? Even though it’s your website, it’s on their servers. Yet when you ask “freedom tech” influencers about it, they love being controlled so much, you’d think their servers were a dominatrix.
Cloudflare decides what software you can use
They block certain web browsers so you’re easier to fingerprint. Get on your knees and obey.
Cloudflare is a US company, making your website subject to US law even if it’s hosted overseas.
For example they doxxed an anonymous UK blogger, because a UK citizen filed with the US courts.
But Smaller providers can’t give good DDoS protection
You need a lot of money and capacity to adsorb “Distributed Denial of Service” attacks,
Which is lots of bots hitting your server up to takedown the site. This forces people to use large CDN providers like Cloudflare.
Arweave is the answer.
This decentralized protocol stores data directly on the blockchain, for 100 years at current prices. And if data storage continues to fall, your legacy could live on forever.
Own Your Domain
Arweave domain names are updated and owned with a cryptocurrency wallet.
Goodbye Cloudflare. Hello Gateways.
On Arweave, your content is displayed all around the world from hundreds of gateways. So you transcend physical locations, because you’re not tied down to any particular country, service provider, or government.
Arweave is a blockchain. ArWeb is our app to use it.
No Coding.
You can create your content, blogs or podcasts, without any coding. It’s an easy to use graphical app.
No Middleman.
Our open source app runs on your local computer, and empowers you to burn your legacy directly on Arweave’s blockchain with no middle man.
Your Fans use Existing RSS Apps!
Your blog or podcast gets it’s own RSS feed, linked to your Arweave domain name. Now your fans can plug this into regular podcast and RSS readers.
Easy Updates
And even better, ArWeb streamlines updates, by comparing what has changed with what is uploaded.
Unlike the official team’s web app, which forces you to pay for the whole website again just to make a change. With our new system, you only pay for what you change or update.
Save Money & Time.
You only pay once, and then avoid having a monthly hosting bill to worry about. Even better, you don’t have to pay for bandwidth.
