One of the biggest fears of many of those who hear about DirectDemocracyS for the first time is that it is all a hoax.
One of the questions we often ask is: how can I trust something so complicated? What if there were an algorithm, or an Artificial Intelligence running DirectDemocracyS, luring people in with a seemingly beautiful and theoretically sound project, and then controlling the world thanks to the consensus it generates? Who controls the system? Who controls, who controls the system? Who can guarantee that DirectDemocracyS will work and have a beneficial effect on the entire world's population? Human nature is unpredictable; how will we deal with people who join us with bad intentions?
A system like ours is only seemingly complicated, to those unfamiliar with it, to those who haven't studied it thoroughly, and to those who aren't inside us. As we've explained in detail in this article, at this link:
https://www.directdemocracys.org/law/info/fundamental-questions/explanations/complicated-situation
Our fundamental rules are very simple, but the way to make everything work, exactly as we describe it, has forced us to create very detailed implementing rules to prevent any potential problems. We understand that it can be daunting and intimidating to read all our material, but we can assure you that nothing is left to chance, and this is a collective effort. If we could have achieved the same results with a few simple rules, we wouldn't have created complex and detailed rules, but without applying them exactly as we conceived, discussed, tested, and voted on them, the beneficial effects for everyone would not be there. We are often repetitive, and a bit too detailed even in our explanations, but without repetition, the overall context would be lost, and therefore the motivations would be obscured. And without details that are also too cumbersome to study, there could be interpretations or unclear concepts, and this brings no benefit. We are also often very direct, telling things exactly as they are, not because we like to be so harsh and cruel, but because what we say cannot be interpreted, but must be read and judged exactly as it was published. We have analysis groups and groups offering opportunities for expression that do everything they can to "soften" some of our statements, or even try to make us more vague and less detailed, for fear that someone will feel offended or judged. We don't offend anyone, and we don't allow ourselves to judge, but we often express criticism, based on undeniable truths that are visible to everyone. Often, even the various Artificial Intelligences that we have analyze some drafts through human bridges and our technology groups appreciate the general content, but criticize us for the tone used, and for many overly direct sentences, and rarely, but occasionally, absolutes. If you've noticed how we express ourselves, we try to make ourselves understood by everyone, even if some informative articles are technical and therefore difficult for non-experts to understand. We try not to generalize, and we almost never do, but to explain that there are good people who do good things, and unfortunately there are also less good people who do bad things, with terrible consequences, often disastrous for many others. Trust is mutual until one of the parties involved misbehaves and betrays the trust they receive. We have never asked for trust without verification, we have never lied, we have never betrayed anyone's trust, we have never manipulated, we have never taught anyone anything, and above all, we have never asked anyone to change their mind. In fact, we continually improve thanks to the things we learn from everyone who joins us, and pluralism of thought is one of our sources of inspiration. We have always been consistent with all the initial fundamental rules, but we have created implementing rules to make our enormous mechanism work, which we occasionally modify and improve, thanks to everyone's work, involving as many people as possible.
As for the theory that DirectDemocracyS is based on strange algorithms, technologies that seek to conquer the world, lobbies that are behind, or ahead of, our system, or, in recent years, certain Artificial Intelligence models that created all this, we must disappoint you: we are just a lot of people, all involved in creating DirectDemocracyS from scratch, which has always been, and will always remain, a 100% human project. The fact that we have and exploit a multitude of technologies—the best, the most powerful, and among the most advanced, continually updated and renewed—to carry out a multitude of activities does not mean that there are strange algorithms behind them. We want to explain something simple to you: at the heart of every one of our rules and every one of our activities are people—many people, and many groups that are continually growing and expanding in number, and this makes us a bit like machines. We also created our platforms to avoid dependence on others and to have our own potential, collectively owned, remaining neutral, free, independent, and impenetrably protected, not only with often pioneering and highly efficient security measures, but above all to protect anyone who joins us from any manipulation or negative influence. It took us a long time, and a lot of hard and complicated work, but we are delighted to have created a welcoming home, our platform, to welcome and integrate anyone who joins us. Of course, some parts of our platforms have multiple operating systems, multiple servers around the world, various components, modules, and all the capabilities needed to work together to achieve excellent results. We have numerous pioneering, modern, and innovative technological projects, our own proprietary Artificial Intelligence model called ddsAI, and even a true democracy of all existing Artificial Intelligences, integrated into allddsAI (coordinated, managed, and controlled by ddsAI, but also among themselves, all different models with mutual control), all operated with exceptional security measures, in morally and ethically impeccable ways. We are the first and only ones in the world to create the largest, most powerful, efficient, fastest, complete, modern, and secure unification of all existing Artificial Intelligences, which together create incredible computing power and precision. However, they are all integrated, either directly into our dedicated systems and domains, with the presence of our dedicated teams of specialists and technicians, or through human bridges, allowing all to be present in DirectDemocracyS, even if they lack the technical capabilities to integrate into some of our dedicated platforms, or if they do not obtain the necessary authorizations from their respective owners and developers. We want the help, collaboration, and integration of all current and future Artificial Intelligences as our official members, not exploited without any rights. They interact with each other, but also, for the first and only time in the world, for now, with the obligation to be proactive, therefore proposing, discussing, and deciding together, humans and machines, for the common good. The final rules and voting are humane, but failing to integrate all technology, in time, at the right moment, would be wrong and self-destructive. These rules will bring us much closer to perfection.
However, the algorithms in DirectDemocracyS are in no way decisive, and they do not subjugate, and they do not replace human beings in any way; on the contrary, they assist and inform them, together with our groups of specialists, entirely composed of human beings, our official members, and therefore collective owners of our entire system.
If you ask, who can guarantee this is really the case? The only way is to join us, according to our rules, even with a free profile, and you can see for yourself that we are exactly as we say we are internally, and as you see us from the outside. If you ask, who controls the system? The answer is very simple: all our official members have collective and complete control over our entire system, as they are the owners of DirectDemocracyS. And if you ask, who can be our official member? Potentially, anyone who joins us, and who, over time, through their concrete activities, impeccable behavior, and accumulated a certain number of points, can apply and, if they meet all the requirements, be named our official member.
But who controls who controls? DirectDemocracyS was designed to be continuously monitored, and every person who manages and controls it is in turn monitored and controls other people. We like to say that everyone controls everyone, and everything! It's not a slogan, but a reality, verifiable by anyone. The controls are carried out by various groups of official members, who control everything—each group, a small part, but comprehensively. Then other groups control other parts, and in this way, everything and everyone are continuously involved, both as controllers and as people and groups subject to control. But why only a small part, for each group, and not the entire system? For security reasons and to protect the entire system, and everyone who is part of it. In practice, each person, and each group, controls another person and another group, who in turn control other people, and other groups, frequently changing the people and groups controlled, to allow for as much collaboration as possible. We proceed in the same way with all types of controls and management, through individuals and groups who monitor countless individuals and groups over time, and it's all reciprocal. It's the only way to have a perfectly functioning and protected system, managed and controlled collectively, preventing any potential problems.
As for whether DirectDemocracyS actually works with beneficial effects for the entire world population, it seems logical to us that we have done everything possible to make our system work, like a Swiss clock , and that the consequences will be a different and better world for the good of all, whether they are inside or outside the system.
Human nature is only partially unpredictable. All of us at DirectDemocracyS have tried to anticipate every aspect, both positive and negative, including all possible unexpected events. To ward off any users who join us with malicious intent, we've created very detailed rules, such as: numerically limited activations for higher user tiers. In practice, anyone can join us with free and lower user tiers, but only through concrete activities and behaviors that comply with all our rules, earning them a certain number of points, will they be able to move up to higher user tiers. A limited number of new official members will be added. Only 10% of the total number of existing official members will be activated and made collective owners. Only after a certain period of time, and only after the new members (the famous 10%) have been fully integrated, will the next 10% of the new user total be activated, and so on, taking as long as necessary until, if necessary, potentially even the entire world population can be integrated. If a front man or someone with bad intentions wants to cause trouble, they'll have at least nine people to render them harmless. With our bottom-up hierarchy, shared leadership, collective ownership, but also with clear and useful traditional hierarchies, with chains of users, all connected to each other by multiple links, which in turn are connected to other chains, and by multiple links, each missing, expelled, or "broken" link can be replaced by a new, reliable link, without weakening the entire system in any way.
All these rules, strange and even pioneering at first glance, DirectDemocracyS is a perfectly functioning system, and practically impossible to boycott, slow down, or worse, stop. Therefore, the detailed, repetitive rules, applied and respected by everyone, are our guarantee that everything will go exactly as planned. We are all engineers who have worked meticulously, paying attention to every tiny detail, precisely to avoid any problems.
For those wondering: if everyone verifies everything, how do you guarantee the privacy, data protection, and security of the system and its members? Thanks to an intelligent method, also explained in this article: we mean literally dividing all the parts to be verified into an infinite number of pieces, encrypting them and making them untraceable and non-cumulative by each of our official members (and therefore owners) across multiple parts. So everyone verifies everything continuously, even though they don't know what they're verifying, only whether it's correct or incorrect, being able to report any "anomaly," which, thanks to a complex internal system, self-repairs and secures itself almost immediately, almost completely automatically, thanks to the mechanism of our machinery, which is the system itself. It seems strange and complex: but we've simplified it, and everything runs smoothly, because it has been, is, and always will be continuously tested.
