The Internet is one of the most popularized and widely used technologies that dominated the 21st century. It came at a time that the world was looking forward to new developments as the century took off in full force. Many decades after it debuted, we’re still here relishing the offerings as if it were a technology that just debuted yesterday.

The Potentialities of the Internet
Undoubtedly, the era of the Internet is not only significant to the new century but also triggered many changes in the world. We’re talking about the application in many sectors of the global economy. Just name them; from health to education, to finance, and down to communication. The latter (communication) is one area that we cannot deny the profound changes that it underwent since the ushering in of the Internet.
There has been a paradigm shift from the traditional medium of communication. For instance, we don’t need much of the gramophone as we now have smartphones to replace them. There are talks about releasing the new Internet of Things (IoT) devices this year. That aims at fostering Human-to-Human (H2H) and Human-to-Machine (H2M) communications. Also, the coming of the Internet replaced the conventional use of letters to the new model that is now driven by Short Message Services (SMS), Emails, and Social Media conversations.

Shortcomings of the Internet
Indeed, the Internet changed human interactions in a significant way. However, the time has come for us to migrate to the next level of communications. That is because of the many issues in the current medium of communication. For instance, social media service providers and other messaging applications have access to many users’ data, despite the purported encryption of conversations.

The Blockchain/Decentralized Solution by Function X
The next era of communication as hinted earlier is facilitated using the blockchain. The Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) helps to cut off intermediaries at different points of interaction. Hence, such architecture is needed in the current communication channel. Thankfully, Function X is a reliable tool that would make that work.
Function X, on its part, is a “universal decentralized Internet service provider that is backed by blockchain technology and smart devices.” The implication is that the blockchain community can use the platform to facilitate over-the-air communications without necessarily using the current structure of today’s Internet. Another aspect to it is the use of smart devices that come in the form of the XPhone and XPOS that have already been developed by Pundi X. To that end we’re confident that the autonomous network it highlighted wouldn’t be a ruse after all.

Why Should I Consider Function X?
There's no denying that many people around the world have become accustomed to the current layer of communication facilitated by today’s Internet. There’s also no doubt that many would find it difficult to switch to or try something new. All those fears are valid.
However, if you love to be in full control of your online/over-the-air activities, then you shouldn’t hesitate to use the decentralized Internet solutions offered by Function X. Besides, the blockchain architecture makes everything interesting, as you would facilitate communications in a decentralized manner that is free of centralized/intermediary control.

Final Words
The world is gradually conforming to the dictates of blockchain. As the months and years pass by, that is the same way does the number of enterprises that use the network increase. Therefore, the decentralization of the Internet as offered by Function X is a welcome development.
