## Introduction | ||
|
||
Location-based addressing is a centralizing vector on the web. | ||
It lets links rot and drives copies of content into mutual competition. | ||
|
||
This document describes a content-based addressing model | ||
which provides permanent links that don't rot and are cryptographically verifiable. | ||
The result is a more cooperative, resilient, and performant web. |
