19+ <p>Your files live on someone else’s server, your identity is owned by giant companies, privacy is a joke and your data has all been either hacked or sold to advertisers. We live in 1995’s nightmare.</p>

34+ <p>Your Urbit is designed to store your data, run your apps and be your digital identity. Each Urbit is a general-purpose computer on a global decentralized network. Yes, really.</p>

43+ <p>If Bitcoin is money and Ether is law, Urbit is land. Each Urbit is a piece of cryptographic property in a finite global namespace. There’s no blockchain — Urbits are distributed in chunks.</p>

58+ <p>Today each of your services has to store both your data and identity and run some computation. Want to leave a service? Too bad. Want to get your data out? Good luck. Your Urbit takes this entire layer and makes it yours. Instead of living out of hotel rooms, you have a home.</p>
