RE: DinsFire v0.1 - Beginning the first decentralized intelligence network (DIN)

in #steemdev7 years ago

I am just wondering how steemit members will be able to notify DinsFire of intelligence that needs to be analysed? How will you know that you need intelligence about a certain thing?

Another way to put this is "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." So how will people report something before a cure is needed?

Sort:  

There will be a number of ways to collect and parse "raw" intelligence, including customizable Steemit feeds (as in my previous app, Esteem.Life) and the use of the Steemit tagging system. This particular feature however will be much more developed in the further future to include other blog sites, news sources, etc.

Ultimately it will be up to DIN users themselves to dictate the relevance these raw bits of information have to their particular objectives. Sort of like a more advanced version of Steemit's curation directors could note particular posts (including ones written by themselves) as relevant to a directive and/or mission. It is also important to have users quantify how much integrity or validity the given source has as a means of discovering reliable sources for future intel gathering.

I am sorry I don't think I was clear. I wanted to know how the steemian who does not want to be a investigator or a director would be able to inform DinFire of potential intelligence.?

Ah, the hope is to have a basic interface for guest users as well! Essentially they could actually as agents themselves but without the ability to post to Steemit until they register.

I was thinking you could have a pond like http://steemitpond.com/ Only they would be ponds for anonymously reporting things that you see in the feeds. You can have avatars that require no identity and do not record identifying information. The point is that a lot of intel gets left out because people don't want to be identified.

Just an Idea.

And an excellent one! Thank you kindly!

We steemians have to stick together. Hope I have provided and valuable idea. Good luck putting it all together.
