Join the Authenticity Alliance!
and help us all escape Silibandia!

Silibandia is the largest nation on Earth, with over 5 billion citizens – actually, think subjects.

Its name stands for Silicon Valley plus the broadband and media industries, but it’s really the whole feudal nation, where we peasants toil in the digital fields controlled by the institutional aristocracy, including the troll farm operators and the dark web mafia. (Really, it’s all one big Cosa Nostra – remember when one of them used to say “Do no evil”?)

This immense nation collects over $2.5 Trillion in taxes each year. Taxes? Really? See the breakdown below. And think about it – can you have a digital existence without paying Silibandia with your money and your soul?


The Authenticity Alliance is comprised of

  • Entrepreneurs – CEOs of the Authenticity Enterprises that provide Authenticity solutions to markets and communities in their area of expertise.
  • Individuals who understand the problems that plague the world's information infrastructure and the way Authenticity solves those problems, and who want to play a part in getting others to see those solutions.

The Authenticity Alliance functions like an “Authenticity growers’ Cooperative” – modeled after food growers’ cooperatives like these, which are owned exclusively by the farmers who proudly grow the nourishing food of their brand.

In our case, the farmers are the entrepreneurs and individuals of the Authenticity Alliance who pitch in and grow this wonderful new crop called Authenticity.

Help us grow Authenticity™ a desperately needed nourishment for our online world. Join us in eliminating the inauthenticity we all suffer at the hands of Silibandia.

“Information about you is our property.”

Silibandia = Silicon Valley + the broadband and media industries

Silibandia considers all information about you to be
their own money-making asset.

Considering how much power Silibandia has over our lives,
perhaps you’d like to participate in governing it.
Let’s make a quick visit to Silibandia to see
how you can participate in its governance.
Welcome to
The Biggest Nation On Earth
We, Silibandia (Silicon Valley + the broadband and media industries), own the world’s information infrastructure.
And we make our own rules.
(Set to music)
We collect

$2.6 trillion

in taxes* every year
We have over

5 billion

Citizens

*Tax revenue = IT $1.32T + Broadband $355B + Media $1.145T

You think “taxes” should be in quotes?
Ha!
Well good, keep that thought.

Silibandia’s information infrastructure includes a huge database about YOU your beliefs, your relationships and affiliations, where you go, who you hang out with, the ideas and information you’ve been exposed to, etc., etc. It’s NOT just about your purchase habits. All that information about you helps those who plan to get you to think their way.

Since Silibandia has so much control over
our digital lives and our digital selves ...

Perhaps you’d like to participate in the governance of Silibandia?

If so, that's great!

Let's get you involved in governing the world's
information infrastructure!

to bring people what they need.

Do you want:

If you do …

Then you’ll be happy to learn that Authenticity™ brings you exactly those things.

Expanding that a bit …

What are digital signatures, you ask?
And what are “measurably reliable identity certificates”?
And how can you have both ACCOUNTABILITY and ANONYMITY — at the same time?

This will explain:

If you like what you saw in the video, then …

Let’s bring this new world of Authenticity™ to your life

MOI™ (MyOwnInformation™)

MOI™ is the secure digital vault that lets you take ownership and control of the use of information about yourself.

Your MOI can reside in your MyOwnOffice, which can be inside your MyOwnHome. (After all, your physical home is a private, secure, bounded social space for family and friends, so why shouldn’t your digital home be your own private, secure, bounded personal social network for family and friends?)

Think of MOI™ as a super-secure digital file cabinet with three drawers.

Your “Biographical Reference Work”

The content of the first two drawers constitutes your Biographical Reference Work (so called because of some characteristics of copyright law).

MOI gives you the tools to claim the information in your Biographical Reference Work as your Personal Intellectual Property, covered by both international copyright law and by secrecy law (usually referred to as “trade secret law” but not limited to secrets used in commerce.)

That means that anyone who wants to use any information in those first two drawers must consent to an implicit or explicit nondisclosure agreement (NDA) and also must obtain a license from you to have and use that information. The license will specify permissible uses, and that any other use of your Personal Intellectual Property constitutes theft and will entitle you to compensatory and punitive damages.

The first drawer is built from Tim Berners-Lee’s W3C Solid specification and is where you store your structured information — things like name, address, phone number, etc — that fit into fields of a certain fairly short maximum length.

The second drawer is for unstructured information such as photos, videos, stories, resumes — typically larger blocks of information that isn’t confined to fields.

Other information you keep

The third drawer is for information that you happen to have in your possession and which requires protection, but which you do not necessarily own — such as files that you use in your work.

MOI is just a start

MOI is very much a work in progress, and its specifications are subject to frequent change. You can help bring it to MVP (minimum viable product) status by becoming an alpha test user.

MOI is just a start on all the things that will be possible in Authentiverse™ — an environment of REAL privacy, REAL security, and REAL accountability. Take a trip to the Visitor Center, below, for an advance look at some of the other things on the Authentiverse roadmap — things that YOU can help us build!

Silibandia doesn’t want you to know about the amazing,
well-proven technology and methodology called AC.
AC puts YOU in control of information about yourself.

How can I become part of this?

Since Authenticity makes other people accountable to you, naturally you’ll need to make yourself accountable to others in your new environment of Authenticity.

When we take you to Authentiverse, you’ll see that the Vital Records Department of its capital, the City of Osmio, issues digital identity certificates with different characteristics and different measures of identity reliability.

Enrollment

After a simple email and SMS check, you’ll start with your Osmio ID Pair, a simple digital identity certificate with an identity reliability score (IDQA) of 8 on a scale of 0 to 72. When you assert that identity on a site or place that supports the Open Badges standard, it will look like this.

Note that your badge discloses nothing about you but your identity quality score – and, well, the fact that you’re a real existing human being.)

Apple Animation

Your initial identity reliability score of 8 is low because email and SMS verification are not particularly robust confirmations of your identity. You can increase your score later by a variety of methods to upgrade the reliability of your identity claim.

So come visit Authentiverse and get your FREE Osmio ID Pair, which includes the simple identity certificate that will get you started on the road to Authenticity!

Help us build AuthentiverseTM!
