ZeroDark Cooperative Launch Gives Power to the People With Digital Life Ownership, Privacy, and an Unconventional Thing Called Cloud Security

Though increasingly feared as an unsafe place to tread, everyone agrees, the Internet is a necessary evil for life in the digital age. The data you create in mobile apps is mined, analyzed, and ultimately sold to tech giants who continually exploit consumers through monetization tactics. Frankly, it’s an infringement of privacy that should lead users to think, “Who’s watching me?”. With a solution to that intimidating question, a new company gives control back to the data owners who should have had it all along. Welcome to ZeroDark.coop. Built for the people, the cloud-based co-op universe is a place where, every time someone dares to venture online, they don’t become unfair game for the sharks in the water.

ZeroDark.coop provides a new kind of cloud. Owned by its members, the co-op gives users ownership and control of their own newly-protected, private data using zero-knowledge encryption. Apps achieve zero-trust by encrypting data the users themselves sync before any of it ever leaves their device. Only users, and the people they choose to share with, will have data access. Even ZeroDark.coop’s server can’t decrypt the objects, or the metadata users sync to the cloud.

Easy for individual and enterprise app developers to use ZeroDark.coop, now privacy-focused products can be built in an ecosystem that guarantees data security even after perimeters or access control systems have been bypassed by hackers.

Vincent Moscaritolo, the co-founder of the ZeroDark Cooperative, said of the launch, “The climate has never been better for a product like this. Consumer sentiment surrounding privacy invasions is somewhere between offended and inflamed. And tech giants have never been more despised. We’re offering a real solution. Not just a tech innovation, but also an innovation in business structures. A tech co-op that is owned and controlled by normal users just like you. You don’t just own your data – you own the company.”
