@benpate So what they are building is actually a way to later enforce censorship of a decentralized network by state actors.

Complete and utter bullshit. Explain how they manage private keys. Not gonna happen. Their document skips this step and only discusses how to discover public keys. They're waiting until the last minute to solve this piece because it's the hardest part. How can you securely distribute them across every browser/session and app that people use to access Mastodon etc? If they were gonna copy Matrix's SSSS they'd have mentioned it

@phnt @benpate These censorship/moderation tools are likely a part of their mainstreaming strategy. They want big orgs, including governments, to host Mastodon instances. The same playbook is used by Matrix.

So I don't think it's a threat, just another brick in the wall separating Mastoverse and the rest of the network.
