Project Liberty, a decentralized social media platform, has announced a significant partnership with SOAR.com, an AI-powered data sharing and social networking platform developed by Paul Allen, the creator of the Family Portal app on Facebook with 120 million users. This partnership, backed by real estate billionaire Frank McCourt with a whopping $250 million investment, aims to revolutionize the way social connections are maintained through a Decentralized Social Networking Protocol (DSNP) and the use of cryptocurrency within the Polkadot ecosystem.
The collaboration between Project Liberty and SOAR comes at a critical time when centralized social media giants like Facebook and Twitter hold immense power over user data and online interactions. With the promise of putting users back in control of their data and privacy, Project Liberty and SOAR are offering a decentralized alternative that prioritizes transparency and security in the digital realm.
Paul Allen, the mastermind behind SOAR’s innovative AI studio, believes that the future of the internet should be built on principles of sovereignty and individual rights. By leveraging AI-powered technology, SOAR’s Family and Citizens Portals aim to provide users with a seamless and secure platform for sharing familial interactions and accessing local community government data. This commitment to user empowerment and data control sets Project Liberty and SOAR apart from traditional social media platforms that have often been criticized for their data handling practices.
In addition to their partnership, Project Liberty is positioning itself as a leading contender for the acquisition of TikTok’s U.S. assets, should the Chinese-owned company be required to sell to a U.S. owner. With a strong focus on decentralization and user-centric design, Project Liberty aims to bring TikTok’s 170 million U.S. users onto their platform, further expanding their reach and impact in the social media landscape.
To showcase their vision and engage with stakeholders, Project Liberty will be hosting the Summit on the Future of the Internet in Washington D.C. on Nov. 21-22. This event will serve as a platform for industry leaders, policymakers, and tech enthusiasts to discuss the future of the internet and the role of decentralization in shaping a more inclusive and secure online environment.
As the digital landscape continues to evolve, initiatives like Project Liberty and SOAR represent a promising shift towards decentralized and user-centric social media platforms. By prioritizing data privacy, transparency, and user control, these platforms are redefining the way we interact online and setting new standards for ethical technology development.
