@ -79,3 +79,24 @@ By adding at least two profiles, you can create meaningful links between those
|
|||
profiles. If someone knows **you**, the physical being **you**, is **Alice** on
|
||||
website A, they will also now know that you are **Alice123** on website B,
|
||||
simply because "*whoever holds that key also holds both of those profiles*".

## Why the snail logo?

> Aren't snails associated with slowness?
|

|

Well, they are also animals that take their homes with them wherever they go. In
|
||||
a sense, they are a nice metaphor for DOIP. Snails are the ultimate
|
||||
"decentralized life" species of the animal kingdom. They don't have to rely on
|
||||
centralized (social) structures, they are self-sufficient by always having their
|
||||
home and their identity—and their data!—with them.
|
||||
|
||||
> Yeah, but… Snails are slow, though!
|
||||
|
||||
You know what, let's embrace the Big Slow. DOIP is slow. Not computationally
|
||||
slow. DOIP is just a slow technology. It doesn't provide a social network, it
|
||||
doesn't send notifications or reminders, it doesn't want your attention. DOIP is
|
||||
more set-and-forget. Set your identities and the technology handles the rest. As
|
||||
long as your public keys are live, they'll just continue to work without your
|
||||
intervention.
|
||||
|
||||
So yes, it's a **Slow Technology**.
