But you're a client or a server? It seems like a class struggle, but it's the classification of a paradigm that has guided the creation and development of the Internet. The server is always available, ready, ready to offer a service. The client rarely exists, communicates with a server, get what they need and moves his attention to another server or off. Roles very well defined. And typically the client that needs more deals, more requests that donations. Thus was born another assumption: the client has a dominant share of the download (inbound) and server upload a prevalent action (outbound). The consequences are plain: unbalanced or asymmetric links, which specify a relationship between inbound / outband ranging from 4 to 20 times. A relationship that binds to be users and non-actors, in a time when the client / server paradigm becomes increasingly peer2peer, where everyone is a client but also a little bit server, where everyone receives but also provides, where he shared with a global network with a cooperative model where no one is essential and everyone is a structural part, where the system becomes increasingly more and more network and the network cloud. A form of democracy, in fact, based on the use of all resources and on the assumption that everyone has the opportunity to make outbound. Suddenly, the asymmetry becomes narrow, this becomes an enemy of democracy cooperative. The model is new. But importantly, in a time when we talk about and decide on Next Generation Network and Digital Divide. On a copper pair do not have a dedicated resource for inbound and one for outbound, but overall a resource, to be divided. The asymmetric approach seemed successful and has been so far. One Sunday I measure the band feel at home, compared to a known point: adsl 4.68/0.83 Mbps Mbps HSPDA 4.57/1.50 astonished: inbound similar double outbound links from the radio. The technology is felt, the symmetry is coming and where it does not necessarily suppose to happen. We approach the model of democracy-related peer2peer cooperative, which has nothing to do with violating copyrights, but that means using the Internet without a telephone switchboard, use computing resources of others without knowing who and where they are just as they do with me, have a virtual hard disk in redundant and distributed to others without knowing how and where it is made. System, network cloud. The cloud needs symmetries. We are looking for, we realize, we construct the symmetries.
