🔭 The HAI-Net Vision: A New Internet
The current internet is not infrastructure. It is *real estate*. You are a tenant. You pay with your data, your attention, your social graph, and your privacy. The landlords — Google, Meta, Amazon, Apple — set the rules, harvest the rent, and can evict you at any time. HAI-Net proposes something different: **an internet you own.** Not just a privacy tool. Not just a messaging app. A complete, working replacement for the cloud-based internet — built bottom-up, from the hardware in your home outward to a global mesh of peers.
🏡 The Self-Hosted Internet Stack
The core concept is the **Local Hub** — a mesh of your own devices (desktop, laptop, NAS, old phone, Raspberry Pi) that collectively run a full internet stack for *you*, your household, or your local community.
🗣️ Social Networking — without the network
**HAI-Net Social** (from gChat) is a complete, working, serverless public social network. Your `.onion` address *is* your node. Posts are cryptographically signed and gossip-propagated up to 6 hops across the global mesh — your voice reaches thousands of nodes while you maintain only a handful of direct connections. Direct messages and group chats are end-to-end encrypted before they leave your device. There is no central server. There is no company. There is nothing to subpoena.
🔍 Search — without Google
**HAI-Net Web** (hainet-web MCP) runs a local search engine on your hub — no queries sent to Google or Bing, no tracking, no ad-driven result ranking. Paired with a full offline **Kiwix** knowledge base (Wikipedia, Stack Overflow, medical references, textbooks), your hub answers most questions without ever touching the open web.
📰 News & Media Aggregation — without the algorithm
Your local AI agent aggregates, filters, and surfaces news and media *for you* — based on your actual preferences, stored privately on your device, with no engagement engine poisoning the feed. You define the parameters. The AI curates. No dark patterns. No outrage optimisation.
🎬 Media Creation & Sharing — without the platform
**HAI-Net Media** (from NoSlop) is a full local AI-powered media production studio. Describe what you want; your Admin AI decomposes it into tasks; Worker Agents execute using ComfyUI, FFmpeg, OpenCV, Whisper, and Piper — iterating until you're satisfied. When you publish, your content is hashed and registered on the HAI-Net blockchain — tamper-proof authorship, forever. It travels peer-to-peer through the mesh. No YouTube. No TikTok. No algorithm. No platform cut.
💬 Chat, Group Chat & Social Posting — without the server
**HAI-Net Social** handles it all: direct messages, group chats, public posts, community channels — all serverless, all encrypted, all Tor-routed. Your IP is never revealed even to your direct contacts.
📧 Email — without the provider *(roadmap)*
**HAI-Net Mail** will bring federated, encrypted, node-to-node email. Your hub is your mail server. Hub-to-hub delivery bypasses the traditional SMTP infrastructure entirely for HAI-Net users.
🤖 AI Assistant — without the cloud
**HAI-Net Persona** is your local AI entity — privately yours, running on your own hardware. It isn't a chatbot you rent from a corporation. It is a proactive, autonomous agent that works for you around the clock: managing projects, conducting research, generating media, surfacing opportunities, maintaining your knowledge base, and networking with other users' AI agents on your behalf — while exposing zero metadata to any third party.
⚡ Compute Sharing — without Amazon
**HAI-Net Collab** (from PPLPWR) turns your idle hardware into a participant in a community supercomputer. Your GPU trains models aligned to the public interest — with outcomes 100% available to the community, not locked behind a paywall. Thermal safety and idle detection ensure it never disrupts your work.
