Report: articles and glossaries for the Nym Writing Program (2 trimester 2025)

I had the pleasure of writing 2 articles and 2 glossaries this season for the writing program.

Of the four articles submitted here, only this one has already been published.

In it, I talk about the history of the internet, from the development of packet switching technology, the cold war, the privatization of the network, to the present day, trying to answer: why did we inherit a guarded internet?

In addition, I’ve written two glossary articles:

  • Metadata and Blockchain, in which I discuss these concepts directly, as if I were writing a dictionary.

Still, I wrote another article on the subject of decentralization, explaining the principles that guide this concept, as well as technologies and tools (Matrix, Mastodon, Filefiiles) that seek to apply a decentralized organization, going through the onus and bonuses of decentralization in the face of opposing organizational regimes.

I had the excellent guidance of Casey Ford, who mentored me in the writing process and can confirm all the information here.

Finally, I appreciate the opportunity, it’s great to write about topics that truly interest and move me.
