One can infer from Godel that no logical system will ever be complete and
secure, ever. Given that, why not make a system that is fun and so cool that
no one tries to screw you up?

Being open still means, that like a house, one still shuts the door, but you
don't have to have a lock on it, because they can still get in through the
window, pick the lock, or wait for you to get home and social engineer you.
But, why not just befriend them and then they'll get access through greater
understanding.

So, security is attained, not by crypto or complex authentication mechanisms,
but through redundancy and radical openness where many eyes get to see
everything. You see, it's already socially engineered for people's desires to
be connected to one another, make cool things, and be loved.

Of course, we'll still rely on crypto for monetary transactions via Paypal or
some similar agent, but let them worry about it. We'll get to make the better
world.

Isn't that cool? Lolzzzzzz.
