Big Tech, big banks, and even public institutions are failing us. +Trust in government and social institutions continue to fall. And for good reason - entrusting all of our +personal data to these arbitrary entities on the internet, and all of our financial resources to faceless +bureaucracies has proven a fundamentally flawed model. + +For every day we see new security breaches, new attempts to force surveillance into law, new violations +of our privacy, and new corruption scandals emerge. The surveillance state Leviathan appears to be only +becoming stronger. But we needn't feel desolate. + +Through advancements in cryptography and p2p software, there’s a brighter future ahead. We’re laying the +foundation for the creation of a parallel set of institutions and services, that will run atop open source, +peer-to-peer networks. We believe in building the future we want to live in, and conducting our lives using +these systems will lead to a more peaceful, trustworthy 21st century. + +Logos is an experiment to build a new society at the frontier - where people are free to express themselves, +and peacefully explore and create. And we need your help.
