  • I’ve been out of this loop for decades, but can see a train wreck if this vulnerability isn’t addressed.

    Matrix says, “The functionality that Matrix provides includes: Creation and management of fully distributed chat rooms with no single points of control or failure…”

    I don’t know what ‘fully distributed’ means. But one potential way of securing everything might be through something like torrenting. Have all Instances on several servers, such that the loss of a single server or Instance couldn’t wipe out a community. If that happens more than a few times, I could see federating setback considerably.

    That’s my two cents, and I’ll leave it to the smarter and more capable folks to resolve.
