ANPROTO / MISSION

Make work that can outlive the platform.

ANProto is for identity, authorship, and shared work that travel with you.

WHY

Iā€™m Ev Bogue, a builder of social software and signed-feed experiments.

I was banned from Google+ in 2012. A friend was banned from LinkedIn in 2026.

People spend years building an online presence, then get punished for being rockstars.

A platform can distribute your work. It should not be able to erase your identity, archive, or relationships.

TWO MISSIONS

Make ANProto Wave.

Not built yet. This is the next experiment.

Durable shared work between people, agents, and networks.

Research sustainable Internet fame.

Build recognition that survives algorithm changes, bans, and platform decay.

THE BET
Make a canonical artifactā†’Share it into a Waveā†’Keep the credit and connections

Sign the origin. Keep a durable link. Let every network be a distribution channel, not your home.
