Episode Details

Erik Newton is the C.O.O. of tlon.io which is the web development service for Urbit. Urbit is a place where you can speak your mind without worry of being censored.

He used to be a lawyer, researching how humans can be removed from the execution and enforcement of contracts. 

He also had a podcast which attempted to pinpoint the causes of conflict in human relationships.

Urbit is 3 pieces of technology:

A virtual server built from the ground up; very secure, durable, and simple.

A peer-to-peer encrypted network connecting all of the servers.

A decentralized verification system.

Data is not harvested on the Urbit network as it is on other social media networks.

Humans can’t put genies back in their bottles. Get ready for Web 3.0!
