Description
Handshake is a pioneering peer-to-peer naming protocol that operates in a decentralized and permissionless manner, empowering each participant to validate and oversee the root DNS naming zone, thereby presenting an alternative to traditional certificate authorities and naming frameworks. In the current landscape, internet names such as top-level domains and social media handles depend heavily on centralized entities that exercise complete control over a system trusted to be reliable, which inherently poses risks of hacking, censorship, and corruption. By introducing innovative methods, Handshake strives to enhance the internet's security, resilience, and societal value through a network validated by its users, representing a significant shift from centralization to a more distributed structure. This initiative not only addresses the shortcomings of the centralized internet services that have dominated since the 1990s but also seeks to revive the original vision of a decentralized internet, where control is distributed among its users rather than concentrated in the hands of a few. Ultimately, Handshake serves as a vital experiment in shaping the future of internet governance and user autonomy.

Jami operates entirely on a peer-to-peer basis, eliminating the need for a central server to facilitate data exchanges among users. It is a GNU initiative supported by the Free Software Foundation and is available under the GPLv3 license. The platform employs advanced end-to-end encryption with perfect forward secrecy for all interactions, adhering to the X.509 standard for security.

Furthermore, Jami is committed to remaining ad-free, ensuring an uninterrupted user experience. The direct peer-to-peer connectivity not only enhances transfer speeds but also minimizes latency significantly.
