Activist.js is an exploration of what publishers can do without the help of their users to make their content more resilient to network failures. In particular, can a drop-in library alert users when issues in the network are making content unavailable? We look into what is actually provided by cache manifests and service works to provide limited control of experience to publishers even when their servers are disrupted.
Unblock (extending OneSwarm) is a privacy preserving overlay. We look at how to extend Oneswarm not just for file sharing, but as a general purpose network overlay. Network topology is only locally known, and based on trusted social links – which protects users and improves performance. Unblock also explores ways to extend the trust found in social networks to a graph with high enough connectivity to support a web browsing workload.
