-# TAO
-The Anon Operation- unstoppable free speech
+# TAO (The Anon Operation): unstoppable free speech
+Outlining a stupid simple standard to facilitate unstoppable free speech on the internet.
+
+## Overview
+Nostr at the core: censorship resistant, also stupid simple and permissionless
+Anon only: Names and Nyms carry reputations/private-risks - Anons speak freely
+PoW: Spam and noise
+
+### Nitty Gritty
+
+Ways to make Nostr notes impossible to stop?
+- Secure Scuttlebutt gossip and offline (?): Even in locked down countries, if we have a SSB-like medium, we only need one person to connect to a relay to share other ppl's messages
+- Extremely lightweight relays and gossiping
+- PWAs and bridges: A proliferation of simple PWAs that act like a hydra, and the sharing of notes through any means (telegram, email, pigeon) before getting to nostr
+
+Making a useful public square?
+- PoW addresses spam
+- 4chan-like thread/reply structure onto a global feed (?)
