DP Studio landing pads / Project Liberty Alliance

Invitation to weigh in

Identity Valley

We opened a landing pad for Identity Valley from public work, not a mission paraphrase.

Identity Valley publishes citable work we could quote (solutions). This briefing is a hypothesis built from those sources. Tell us if we misread the research, add papers we missed, and weigh in on Desirable Properties tied to that work.

If you represent Identity Valley, confirm the source URLs, then open the Desirable Properties tab and leave a patch idea where the property text misses what your public work already argues.

Research and policy only change the rule-set when it is linked to original sources. Help us keep this pad tied to your papers and reports, not a press-release summary.

Public packet only. Hypothesis marks stay until you confirm sources. Each Alliance member gets a different pitch so we can experiment. Your pad is https://desirableproperties.org/pad/identityvalley (hyphens optional). Direct link to this tab: https://desirableproperties.org/pad/identityvalley?tab=dp

Weigh in on the Desirable Properties

If you represent Identity Valley, confirm the source URLs, then open the Desirable Properties tab and leave a patch idea where the property text misses what your public work already argues.

These directions are generated from Identity Valley's public corpus, not from private landing pads. Each one is a hypothesis. Follow the interest that feels like your work. The Hermes prompt and Discuss link are real contribution paths, not a brochure.

DP8 · hypothesis

Collaborative Environment and Meta-Communities

Your stated mission ("Identity Valley: A Digital World Built on Trust and Responsibility | Identity Valley The seven Digital Responsibility Goals are guiding principles for a better digital future.") sits next to DP8's human issue: Online communities constantly restart. Guiding question: How do communities persist beyond platforms?

Direction to explore

How do Alliance members share a collaboration space without collapsing into one platform community?

Candidate patch idea

Define meta-communities as optional shared rooms with explicit consent, not an ambient social network that harvests the Alliance listserv.

DP20 · hypothesis

Community Ownership

Your stated mission ("Identity Valley: A Digital World Built on Trust and Responsibility | Identity Valley The seven Digital Responsibility Goals are guiding principles for a better digital future.") sits next to DP20's human issue: Platforms own everything users create. Guiding question: Who should own the next layer of the Internet?

Direction to explore

This is the anti-capture test: can Identity Valley's coordination space stay owned by people if commercial players arrive later?

Candidate patch idea

Strengthen anti-capture language: community rules and exit rights are written before large commercial platforms are invited to play.

DP4 · hypothesis

Data Sovereignty and Privacy

Your stated mission ("Identity Valley: A Digital World Built on Trust and Responsibility | Identity Valley The seven Digital Responsibility Goals are guiding principles for a better digital future.") sits next to DP4's human issue: Companies own your data. Guiding question: Who should own your data?

Direction to explore

Where does Identity Valley's “people own their data” language need to become an enforceable affordance?

Candidate patch idea

Require that personal data created in a layer can leave with the person, including social graph, without a platform petition.

DP2 · hypothesis

Participant Agency and Empowerment

Your stated mission ("Identity Valley: A Digital World Built on Trust and Responsibility | Identity Valley The seven Digital Responsibility Goals are guiding principles for a better digital future.") sits next to DP2's human issue: Algorithms controlling what you see. Guiding question: How do we ensure people stay in control of their digital lives?

Direction to explore

Does Identity Valley's agency claim stop at data export, or does it include control of attention and presence?

Candidate patch idea

Add that portable social graphs and presence settings are required expressions of participant agency, not optional app features.

DP1 · hypothesis

Federated Authentication & Accountability

Your stated mission ("Identity Valley: A Digital World Built on Trust and Responsibility | Identity Valley The seven Digital Responsibility Goals are guiding principles for a better digital future.") sits next to DP1's human issue: Fake accounts, scams, and impersonation. Guiding question: How can we know who we are interacting with without sacrificing privacy or decentralization?

Direction to explore

Can Identity Valley's identity work sit beside federated authentication without becoming another platform login?

Candidate patch idea

Clarify in DP1 that self-sovereign or DSNP-class identifiers are valid accountability anchors, not second-class to platform accounts.

DP5 · hypothesis

Decentralized Namespace

Your stated mission ("Identity Valley: A Digital World Built on Trust and Responsibility | Identity Valley The seven Digital Responsibility Goals are guiding principles for a better digital future.") sits next to DP5's human issue: Losing your identity when platforms change. Guiding question: How do names and identities persist when platforms change?

Direction to explore

Should Frequency / namespace work be named as an example of decentralized naming rather than a single mandated stack?

Candidate patch idea

Note that multiple naming systems may coexist if they remain user-portable and are not captured by one commercial resolver.
