Productivity Advantage
Consumer enhanced Productivity adds ability for each consumer to on top of traditional Producer driven Productivity e.g. get rewarded for useful comments you made on public forums, earn from idle bandwidth and unused disk spaces while you sleep.

Security Advantage
A fundamental problem with Cloud security that is impossible to fix is the lack of physical security
Protection get A LOT easier if you don't have to protect your data physically - from the owner of the computer it is on or from the owner of the room it is in - from the Cloud Platforms.
fact that you are putting your data on their computers without encryption
Eliminate Cybercrime
Cybercrimes are causing substantial damages to many individuals and organisations EVERYDAY.
-
Private Cyberspace mitigates System and Human Vulnerabilities by enabling citizens to block transactions INDEPENDENTLY with their own Private Cyberspaces.
-
It brings together the compute and data from millions of citizen devices to verify transactions even before illegitimate transactions reach affected systems.
Fix Hardware Secured VM
Cloud Platforms have started to introduce Virtual Machines (VMs) secured by hardware, giving the impression that your data is secure with them.
Google promotes its Confidential Computing services confidently but the AMD SEV technology it is based on has been shown to be insecure:
- Re-volting: AMD Secure Encrypted Virtualization undone by electrical attack • The Register
- https://securityaffairs.com/117981/security/amd-sev-attacks.html
- https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/researchers-bypass-amd-s-sev-virtual-machine-encryption/
Microsoft's Confidential Computing based on Intel SGX does not flair much better:
- SGX, Intel’s supposedly impregnable data fortress, has been breached yet again | Ars Technica
- Intel issues patches for SGX vulnerabilities • The Register
Despite the impressive sounding concept of using hardware for protection, dynamic and complex systems are always going to have weaknesses, Private Cyberspace complements Hardware Secured VMs with an independent Citizen driven Security layer.
Evidence Advantage
Collect evidences yourself instead of relying on cloud platforms. From proving your innocence in court to winning an argument with a friend, you have control.
Record every phone call, delete every email, how much data in what situation is all up to you instead of the platform.
Usability Advantage
- Cloud Platforms have SAME interfaces for all users which are different to other platforms.
- Private Cyberspaces have their OWN interfaces which can be used across multiple systems.
-
One Click installation of the Private Cyberspace frontend user interface on most phones.
-
One Command installation of the Private Cyberspace backend compute nodes on most computers.
-
Local incubators provide customised Private Cyberspace for specific industries or population segments e.g. with localised languages and pretrained voice recognition.
-
Modular Assist prevents technical support personnel locking in people without technical skills, promotes specialisation, reduces training duration and opens up Private Cyberspace support to quality and price competition.
Sovereignty Advantages
Private Cyberspace: Follow Local Laws
Cloud Platform: Follow Overseas Laws
We use Australia as an example here to demonstrate some positive impacts that Private Cyberspace can make to a country, however ALL countries will benefit from a population empowered with ubiquitous personal compute capability.
Currently, it is very difficult for Australian laws to regulate activities inside overseas data centres that operate under laws of foreign governments.
- How many Australians use Facebook, Instagram or WhatsApp ?
MILLIONS - How many data centres has Meta (their common platform) got in Australia ?
ZERO
source: meta data centers
- How many Australians use Youtube, Google Search or Google Maps ?
MILLIONS - How many data centres has Google (their common platform) got in Australia ?
ZERO
source: google data centers
Private Cyberspace uses existing devices in people's HOMES and OFFICES, neither compute nor data leave the country.
The above is just about the data centres, many other structures of a Cloud Platform (from shareholders to directors) are mostly under Overseas Laws.
Broadband Advantages
Private Cyberspace: more return on investment
Cloud Platform: less return on investment
Broadband like most infrastructures of a country are funded either directly (e.g. Australia's National Broadband Network) or indirectly (e.g. USA's Universal Service) by taxpayers.
Cloud Platforms make use of taxpayer funded broadband to reach their users (e.g. Apple using national broadband to locate Airtags ini realtime) and their data (e.g. OpenAI using data uploaded with national broadband to train ChatGPT) without needing to seek permission and without compensating the taxpayers.
Skill Advantage
Private Cyberspace removes the SKILL barrier by enabling anyone (from billionaires to refugees) to control and process their data efficiently and easily through mixing and matching computing nodes (like toy bricks) without technical knowledge.
Private Cyberspace removes the SKILL barrier to private cyberspace ownership by enabling application customisation through mixing and matching of computing nodes (like toy bricks) without technical knowledge. Everyone can INNOVATE and shape their digital environments their way via simple interfaces.
Trust Advantage
distributed attestation
central attestation
Private Cyberspace revolutionises online TRUST by solving the Visibility vs Privacy conundrum so Private Cyberspaces can interact and collaborate safely. It delivers Homomorphic Encryption at scale enabling citizens to solve intractable problems (e.g. COVID) that have challenged all governments.
Instead trusting something (a person, a piece of information etc.) based on its visibility provided by Cloud Platforms, Private Cyberspace enables the matching of the visibility requirements of the send and receiver.
- Cloud Platform provides a SUPERVISED resource exchange for Platform Users under its rules.
- Private Cyberspace provides a TRUSTED resource exchange for Cyberspace Owners directly.
Private Cyberspace removes the TRUST barrier by giving unprecedented visibility into every online transaction (across internet and phone) yet protecting the privacy of all participants with the world's first deployment of homomorphic encryption at scale.
By running the Console, you have created the first Dynamic Alias in your private cyberspace. It is a Guest Alias used to collect data onto your phone only and does NOT communicate with the outside world, you can add Associate and Member Aliases into your Console when you are ready to start sharing some of your data.
Resources Advantage
Private Cyberspaces can reduce their costs substantially by leveraging latent resources from each other.
Redundancy Advantage
No matter much redundancy a Cloud Platform claimed it has, there is STILL at least one Single Point of Failure - itself. Whether it is faulty equipment, software vulnerability, changed usage terms, billing error, dishonest employee, changed usage terms or persistent hacker ... there is no redundancy for the company itself.
Data centres used by Cloud Platforms are large in size, power hungry, highly visible, making them easy targets:
- for surveillance in times of peace
- for destruction in times of war
Private Cyberspaces are distributed in millions of homes and offices making focused attack much more difficult.
Reward Advantage
Earn reward directly based on the value you have delivered to individuals who have benefited from your contributions - independent of Cloud Platforms.
- Fine Grained - get rewarded for even the smallest contributions.
- Retrospective - get rewarded continuously as long as your contributions deliver value to others.
Private Cyberspace removes the REWARD barrier by assuring quality and tracking every contribution made (no matter how small) with the world's first citizen controlled blockchain technology that is not driven by greed and ignorance.
Wastage Advantage
Data wastage is a main problem with Cloud Platforms, user data are deleted due to privacy concerns, lack of storage capacity or government laws.
- Cloud Platforms' usage and storage of user data are normally restricted by slow reacting laws.
- Private Cyberspaces can store detailed data for indefinitely and use it for whatever purpose.
Precious data are being lost EVERYDAY due to lack of reliable internal storage or government privacy laws preventing their storage externally.
Private Cyberspace's Infinite Disk service solves the data storage cost concerns which traditionally has been extremely expensive if it is fast, secure reliable, durable, available, easy to use and without a single point of failure.
Asset Advantage
The step in building up your information asset is to STORE your data yourself.
You can then keep a copy of all the data you supply to the Cloud in your Private Cyberspace as well as store private data for your own exclusive use there.
The more data you store in your Private Cyberspace, the more insight you will gain and the more impact you can make, the more valuable your data assets become.
