![]() Good distributed systems take metadata-protecting measures typically by onion routing or bulk storage ( consensus, blockchain). Distributed: Computer-scientific term to describe how a computational challenge, in our case the communication of data, is spread over many relay nodes in a redundant, fail-safe and in our case content-agnostic way.Additionally, people fail to run their own servers whereby popular servers become interesting targets for intrusion. Federated: Users are hosted on specific servers of their choosing, giving those servers an augmented insight into user data and especially metadata, making those servers single points of failure while still needing to deliver data to additional servers over potentially unsafe communication links (X.509 certification is easier to man-in-the-middle).Politically favorable concerning control and censorship, but data may be located in various locations, possibly less safe than when centralized. ![]()
