A better social media, cut cash to politicians with inbuilt voting, vote on issues no
#1
I want a real social networking website not this facebook social media lite, I want to be able to list my desires and wants. I wanna put up a project then tryfail getting my friends to support me. Admittedly there are others filling the nieches but I want one that does it all. It doesn't need to keep all my photos but if there was anything I wanted to haul around the internet with me its my music, why can't I put that in an album?

Why cant we use social media as a tool for voting, not voting for individual politician but an issue thats relevant, lets take the power back out of their hands and put it where it started in the hands of you and me.

How hard would it be and what would it look like? What features and tools would you need, ignore the my music bit and just think text data only, how hard could it be to make a better facebook, its just a glorified forum with piss poor search and sort.

Feel free to redefine me and put your own ideas and suggestions on board, I do not have the ability to code this well but only dream.

To code? Not particularly difficult.

To code securely? Not possible at this time. With current technology the Americans, the Chinese and the Russians (and perhaps others) would all be able to exploit such an electronic voting system. Perhaps in a few years, if there are some cryptographic breakthroughs.

To convince people to switch to after it has been coded (securely or otherwise)? Almost impossible.

I don't reckon that security is too difficult to deal with, limit iprange to country of choice, watch for overseas packets.

Altho you could do a two stage attack with a local server.

How many accounts could they hack, depends on the password length.

It could be done i reckon.

You're either kidding, in a very half-hearted attempt at trolling, or you are genuinely and completely unequipped for such a debate. Either way, I'm not up for spending any more time here.

Come on bro, like yes its difficult but Facebook seems to serve up some pretty high data volumes of 'secure' traffic. You really mean that there is just point blank no way?
