OpenNIC is one of the oldest,<br>> most decenteralized, and stable altroot out there.<br>> <br>> We need to move past the old centralized IANA / ICANN managed web. We<br>> cannot have a truly free internet until our internet is decentralized and<br>> controlled by us (as people, not pirates).<br>> <br>> Other systems are all fine and dandy like bitDNS, etc. They, however,<br>> require extra software on your computer and more than likely will never<br>> have widespread adoption. OpenNIC and other more traditional alt roots use<br>> the same technology your computer already uses, you just have to point<br>> your DNS to a new IP.<br>> <br>> Go to http://useopennic.org to quickly setup your computer, and share this<br>> link with at least one other person. The homepage to the opennic project<br>> is http://opennicproject.org<br>> <br>> Also go to http://dotpirate.me to register a domain - they are free, and<br>> if you sign up for a domain name, you will also be given a coupon code for<br>> http://torgaurd.net where you will get a free month of any of their<br>> service.<br>> <br>> Also we will offer ccPirateTLDs (de.pirate for instance) to any Pirate<br>> Party which is a full member of PPI, just create an account email me your<br>> username and we will get it taken care of.<br>> <br>> ____________________________________________________<br>> Pirate Parties International - General Talk<br>> pp.international.general@lists.pirateweb.net<br>> http://lists.pirateweb.net/mailman/listinfo/pp.international.general<br></div> </div></body>
