Business Case

WWFM-DSAP Integrator Alliances – Purpose & Key Objectives:

The alliance will serve as a point of reference, framework and analytics/ reporting for the development of free-to-access internet – protocol and the network which emerges from it;
- the protocol maybe hardware, an application or operating system or custom configuration of either and will enable two or more protocol users to connect (not free internet in the sense someone else pays the ISP)
- protocol users must be able to enjoy all the benefits of web.2.0 (video streaming/ casting, calls, file sharing, search, website publication etc)
- protocol users don’t incur the downsides of existing networks e.g. paying for connectivity, censorship, centralization etc

Illustrive Example protocol in Fig 1.0 – Three smart phones back to back, running a Free OS – Maybe effectively create an omnidirectional light signaling, possibly even Wireless Web-Serving Federated Mesh – Dorothy Sensor Access Point

Ensures the opportunity of collaborating on the beta release of a free-to-access internet – network protocol, is as democratized and supportive as possible:
Grant licenses to as many as possible of the 1.5+ million administrative divisions in existence
- appoint each region a licensees to be a steward of that license;
  - permits conditional access to the initial protocol and R&D (from DATRO)
  - grants authority to the licensee, to operate and represent the WWFM-DSAP integrator alliance in the licensees respective country, state, county, city and neighbourhood (use of branding, IP, digital resources, support etc).

Make profit!
- This alliance is for-profit
- license fees collected are used to finance the purchase of ownership and control of DATRO Consortium Ltd (all intellectual property, research and development).
  - In a typical case scenario, license fees from the worlds 1.5 Million Administrative Divisions, between 2025-29, could net circa $100Million USD
  - After the £20 Million pledged to DATRO is paid (to satisfy as The Security Groups’ handover and exit from this field of research) the IA expects profit

WWFM-DSAP Integrator Alliance (IA) will be granted access to fork and modify the draft WWFM-DSAP protocol, developed by DATRO. This access will be granted by a licensed and approved regional WWFM IA operator. This WWFM-DSAP protocol is hosted within a private Github repository. Once access is granted, authorised Local Partners will subsequently be able to generate their own unique flavor of the WWFM-DSAP Protocol. By Protocol we mean a simple, universal (and preferably multi-lingual) application/ OS upgrade (and/or guide) – which anyone, anywhere may read/ access/ follow and/or install – with the desired result being them able to communicate digitally with another protocol user for free (within their household, street, neighbourhood, city, country and region).

What WWFM-DSAP isn’t

The WWFM-DSAP Integrator Alliance will work hard to ensure the deliverable e.g. the protocol, does not become anthing along the lines of instructions to a local coffee shop with free wifi, nor instruction to purchase a solution. That said, a pre-built product series may emerge from this alliance, developed solely for local partners to be able to focus on developing the protocol itself and avoid being bogged down by cumbersome hardware assembly and troubleshooting.

The WWFM free-to-access internet network protocol will be a simple instruction enabling neighbours to easily re-configure or upgrade their pre-existing equipment, in order to communicate with each other without paying a fee. Furthermore this solution must be hybrid, so as to legally work in conjunction with the existing internet protocol and not infringe on terms of services, such as those of the ISP. Or create unfair competition, as is the case with SpaceX recently.

WWFM’s Land Traffic Control (LTC) Center System (developed following a collaboration with Alphabet, Google Team X and the Google Loon Air Traffic Control System), will enable licensees worldwide, to utalize the cellular networks USSD channel (based on our collaboration and trial with Thingstream) to provide free, standardised reporting on local partners progress in developing their own variation of the WWFM protocol. Such reporting will validate which flavour of the WWFM-DSAP protocol field-trial (and subsequent network roll-out) produced the first Wireless WebServing Federated Mesh – Dorothy Sensor Access Point (WWFM-DSAP) Network. The first network to reach 50+ million users and/or the most users by April 2029 will be considered the official industry standard of the WWFM-DSAP protocol. For more details on this approach please read the WWFM Business Case.

Disclaimer: Certain details have been intentionally omitted from this explanation. Access to the full R&D deliverables is restricted and available only under an NDA and our license agreements.

Unique ID’s are generated for each WWFM Integrator Alliance operators’ license. This is generated from a combination of the most appropriate Uber H3 addressess relating to the administrative division the licensee represents. Image 1.0 is an illustrative example of the license unique ID’s for the 6,316,683+ supranations/ nations (and level 1 -5 adminstrative divisions: cities, towns, villages etc).

This methodology, combined with a fork of Handshake’s Top Level Domain naming protocol (and USSD for other vital signalling), presents an opportunity to make each licensee a kind of WWFM lighthouse or anchor-point for their administrative divisions physical network, which is expected to emerge from the beta WWFM protocol.

This would be a more advanced and technically sound alternative to what some in the blockchain community have been known to do to balance sovereignty and anonymity with accountablity and regulation – whereby public notaries are appointed as keyholder of core nodes in their network, so that there’s points of contact for accountable people – giving some abuseless opportunity of triangulating bad actors on this type of network.

With Uber H3’s resolution 14, which covers every 6.267m² of Earth’s surface, an effective handshake and addressing solution exists for GPS-enabled WWFM-DS Access Points. This is largely due to the fact that internet access points are wireless which, given the broadcast/transceiver range of current and future generations of Wi-Fi (e.g., Wi-Fi 6+, 7, etc.), there is little advantage in having two or more wireless WWFM Access Points within such close proximity of each other. This limitation serves as a feature, akin to how paint is applied to a car, where the paint is charged with one polarity and the car with the opposite. This not only aids in adhesion but also encourages paint particles to repel from one another, resulting in an even distribution. This characteristic, rather than being a mere limitation, becomes increasingly crucial as the physical WWFM stations (operating the protocol) decrease in size. Furthermore, it prevents subversion through “farms” or “farming,” where multiple devices are in close proximity to emulate larger audiences, deceiving and bypassing digital voting and social media metrics, such as like and follower counts.

WWFM learns from older free internet orgs which have failed to deliver a free-to-access internet. Our primary difference in our approach begins by working bottom-up instead of top-down. What we mean by this is that instead of flying drones or balloons or launching satellites, WWFM’s licensed Integrator Alliance operators and their local partners will supply communities with free software and guides so that anyone, anywhere can upcycle and re-purpose pre-existing hardware.
