About mertenvg
I have a tendency to overthink everything, including thinking about what other people think. And I think everything is an engineering problem.
Recently I nearly got burned by a phishing scheme. Plus the constant spam no matter how many times I clean out my mailbox (gmail) has turned it into a cesspool I need to wade through every time I want to find a legit email. I thought I'd try a different angle. Out of it came DMCN.
An open protocol that puts a digital identity front and center of any messages sent through it, and a bridge to traditional mail that trades the identity for compatibility.
