TL;DR - it's an ad for the OP's platform: essensia[1]
I've been interested in this sort of thing for a while, but I really don't know that much about these services. For example:
- how do I pay? just crypto? If so, I can't see how prices can stabilize enough to compete against existing services
- what happens if I don't pay?
- how do I get my data out of the platform?
- can I delete my data?
- what happens if the crypto is broken? Is all of my data compromised, or just some of it?
I wish the author mentioned alternative approaches with similar goals, such as Solid[2], which is especially notable as Tim Berners-Lee is associated with the project. Because of that, I see this as mostly an ad for the OP's company.
