Governments working WITH instead of FOR their citizens
Collaborate NOT Regulate
Ubiquitous Compute gives governments a powerful new tool:
- Solving their toughest problems more effectively through Collaboration rather than Regulation.
Governments can solve some of the most difficult problems by aggregating the compute power and private data on millions of citizen mobile phones.
Just like how private Cyberspace solves the Privaxy vs Visibility conundrum by boosting compute opportunity, it solves the Productivity vs Unemployment Conundrum by boosting economic opportunity..
Government of each country must have control of its own digital landscape free from influence of foreign powers.
Citizen Ecosystem is a country specific cyberspace where citizens of a country can collaborate with each other for the good of the country.
Citizen Ecosystem enables governments to work WITH instead of just work for their citizens. Private Cyberspaces encourages innovation rather than regulation. Private Cyberspaces reward production instead of promoting consumption.
Citizen Synergy technology. It resolves the privacy concerns limiting citizen participations in sharing of resources with others - opening the way for safe rewarding collaboration between complete strangers.
Citizen Assisted Governance
Due to the separation of power principle, the global Private Cyberspace incubator 88.io is NOT supposed to operate in any country.
88.io can help start other global or national incubators and it may act as a back up in rare cases, but it was never designed to be the primary incubator for everyday use.
Currently, 3 trial national incubators are being developed in 3 countries:
- net2max.au - Australia
- net2max.cn - China
- net2max.us - United States of America
Trial national incubators are also being planned in 3 other countries:
These are all trials incubators for fine tuning of the incubator deployment process, it is expected that local citizens will deployment THEIR OWN incubators in their countries themselves for production use by the public.
Some government departments and large enterprises are also expected to deploy their own incubators for sovereignty and security reasons.
Please contact us at partner@88.io if you will like to participate in the incubator program in your country.
Due to the separation of power principle, legal entities that are PUBLIC incubators (where private cyberspaces do NOT belong to the same organisation) cannot also be an application provider or an infrastructure supplier.
Country Deployment
Incubators make it easy for everyone (independent of their skills and wealth) to create and operate their own Private Cyberspaces by solving common Usability and Affordability issues that traditionally come with starting a new endeavour.
As a cyberspace owner the Application Provider that helps you create your first Private Cyberspace is your incubator. Explore the possibilities of your Private Cyberspace with it and after you have gained some experience you can look at other incubator types mention on this page.
Incubation is a critical part of innovation within Entity Computing (which rejects the idea that a few directors and engineers of the Cloud can know what is best for the rest of the world). Incubators' roles are just in getting people started and then let them grow their Private Cyberspaces in their OWN ways.
There are incubators supporting all start up types, from Cyberspace Owners (e.g. you) to Application Providers (e.g. contacttrace.com.au) to Infrastructure Suppliers (e.g. oztralia.com) to Ecosystem Coordinators (e.g. next2max.au).
1. Cyberspace Owner
Cyberspace Owners are supported by Application Providers who sole purpose is to make it EASY for the owners to maximise the benefits provided of their private cyberspaces.
1.1. Usability
Fit for Purpose For your initial Private Cyberspace you can choose an Application Provider that preload applications that matches closest to your lifestyle e.g. university student, active retiree etc. If you do not have a preference, you can just go to 88.io and you will be redirected to a general purpose Application Provider closest to you.
Simple Adjustments After your Private Cyberspace is created, you can adjust it according to your needs (to make it easier to use, to add more features etc.) including changing everything that the Application Provider has preloaded for you or changing the Application Provider itself - at anytime, at no cost - while keeping all the information asset you have already gathered untouched.
This flexibility is a direct result of storing your data in your Private Cyberspace where you have full control instead of storing your data in the Cloud where it has control.
AI Assist Most Application Providers will have some AI assist user-interface. For example, speech recognition: https://speech.quuvoo4ohcequuox.0.88.io/
1.2. Affordability
Different Application Providers can decide on the best way of offering their applications and their level of support service but the idea is to level the playing field for those with financial resources, so the default is the Anonymous Voluntary Donation mode within the Retrospective Reward scheme.
In order to grow the ecosystem, most Application Providers charges for commercial use only, that is they do NOT charge at fees if you use them for commercial purposes, but you are asked to contributes about 1% of your revenue if you operate your
3. Application Providers
Contact Trace Australia (contacttrace.com.au) is an example of an Application Provider that provides general purpose Private Cyberspaces to people who live in New South Wales Australia with a focus on collecting and generating value from owner's movement data.
Contact Trace Australia in about building up location based information assets in your Private Cyberspace, so its Web Console (available at https://app.contacttrace.com.au) is built around an online map.

Organisations that provides applications to Private Cyberspaces are called Application Providers.
oordinates activities in the Citizen Ecosystems are called Ecosystem Coordinators.

Unlike a platform an A Citizen Ecosystem
enable local communities WITHOUT much resources to put together their own community based services rapidly and cheaply by leveraging global citizen applications.
Incubators provides citizen ecosystem templates enabling citizens worldwide to set up local private cyberspaces rapidly. They can also provide any missing components filling in gaps temporarily until local resources are available.
88.io is an incubator for citizen ecosystems, it can be used as a template for creation of new ecosystems as well as a backup ecosystem for other ecosystems.
It is designed to complement and not replace country specific ecosystems (e.g. net2max.au, net2max.cn, net2max.us) which have much more features, better integration with the governments and much narrower focus.
Community Support
For the non-technical folks, there are people out there who need your example, who need you to go forth and fight that battle, so they won't have to fight as hard. And it is worth it, you help to change the profession by your existence.
