Tunneloop Whitepaper

TunnelLoop
The Canvas for a truly Transparent and Anonymous Te
chnocratic Society
GOLD ERA INVEST GROUP LTD.
A Theoretical Piece of Software envisioned by Cyrus
Benjamin Ellis
Imagine a way to bridge the gaps between websites c
reating a community of dialogue to overlay
of the original web. A blank canvas, empty at first
, a "lobby" which would act as a layer on-top
of existing web pages. A new lens to view the web,
a social media network , a way internet
surfers could leave their unfiltered expressions, i
n text, links and possibly audio forum.  
TunnelLoop would initially take the form of a Chrom
e/Firefox extension that would index any of
the URL links visited, and create a separate server
-side overlay page with aspirations to
eventually develop into its own dedicated browser.
The page would be a stored in a secure dedicated pr
ivate server, with all information securely
encrypted. The page would be clear, envisioned in t
he resemblance of a plastic screen protector,
which could be edited by whoever visited the page w
ho has the extension installed, similar to a
whiteboard. Users would use this software to leave
comments and expressions on anything from
news articles to social networking sites with an in
terface sporting tools to the left and right like
Photoshop,  
In the most simplistic way it would be way to graff
iti on any web-page, without actually
changing the code of the site itself. TunnelLoop wo
uld essentially be a blacklight for the internet,
activating it would enable users to see all the “st
ains” (or opinions) people have left on websites.
It could also serve to fulfill a natural whistleblo
wing and bullshit call-out service to protect
internet users not only from questionable sources b
ut anything from scam artists to predators
A simplified version of TunneLoop, possibly an earl
y alpha development model, which I would
like to call HIVEWIRE, would be an RSS based commun
ity. With the application enabled, every
website visited would have its own separate RSS fee
d, with users able to add their own text and
see what others have left to say with a “Top 100" l
ist showing the most popularly scribbled on
pages, similar to reddit.
In a more complex form, TunnelLoop could be a way t
o unleash the raw voice of the people, as
well as an interesting way of documenting the inter
net habits of users in-app, an secondary
feature that users could easily opt-out of.  
The true possibilities of this technology quickly b
ecome realized in a virtual reality setting, as  
this software could become the cornerstone of an IN
TERNET 3.0. A more organic and  
dynamic way of communicating with the internet. In
this scenario, naturally, most other social
networking applications such as Facebook, Twitter,
Tumblr and Instagram would evolve to
become smaller components of the Tunneloop.  

Based on its potential sheer ease of use, access an

d applicability, Tunneloop could become the 

torchbearer in this enlightenment age of "social" s

ocial networking. 

It is important that as the internet becomes more d

ecentralized, the users, the public, the people, 

have a way to make their voices heard, over the sev

erely sugar-coated and censored version of 

the internet that we have today. A tool for humanit

y to keep the voice of the people readily 

available and at the people’s fingertips.  

I will reiterate that this software could start off

as a simple Firefox extension and grow into its 

own browser, client, and possibly an entire OS even

tually, but that’s another project.  

It’s also important that we have a clear way of mon

itoring the public voice across all platforms  

of the internet. This itself could be avoided with 

the click of a button after installation, or to opt

-

out of installing it altogether, for those who woul

d not want to take part in the commentary 

TunnelLoop could possibly programmed in python and 

mysql as I have been advised that would  

be two good options, with the navigation systems be

ing primarily javascript. Personally I don’t 

know any languages but I have a very keen mind towa

rds natural mathematics, patterns systems, 

trends, sociology, hermetics, mysticism. 

Let my words sit in, and think about it. This tool 

will be created and popularized eventually in an 

increasingly mobile and connected world. Lets do it

now before something similar is created  

with hidden malicious intents, or by a developer wh

ose monetary profits are their only motif. 

Just think of the millions of websites on the inter

net and the millions of beneficial uses a  

program like this would have. I have also thought o

f the negative connotations that could arise 

from something this, and most of them can be avoide

d with fair and open policy. 

It’s important that dialogue is formed about the im

plications and possible restrictions of any  

programs like this as we are now quickly moving int

o the new age. 

I will continue to nurture this idea. I know this s

eed will spread and grow in the minds of any 

true innovators and those who know their right to b

uild as they please as long as it is has the 

benefit of the greater society as a whole, in mind.

I know this theoretical piece of software has the p

otential to be the next Facebook, Reddit and  

Wikileaks, all-in-one, through the beauty of open-s

ource.  

We would begin with a closed community development 

for obvious reasons, only inviting those 

we know will be productive to the narrative we wish

to create for our futures. Time to build a 

brighter one !
