在线社交网络已经成为在互联网上进行通信的主要工具。虽然集中式解决方案容易受到审查，隐私侵犯和不必要的用户数据营销，但分散式解决方案，例如基于p2p技术，有望克服这些限制。一个主要的缺点是需要安装额外的软件，这是逐渐不接受的用户是用来基于网络的应用程序。在本文中，我们介绍了如何使用WebRTC来实现一个免安装，完全分散的在线社交网络。使用WebRTC，标准浏览器可以直接通信，这允许构建具有复制和访问控制的可靠存储的PKI安全的P2P覆盖。评估表明，我们的方法是可扩展的用户数量方面，并符合性能要求，今天的社交网络。
Online social networks have emerged as a main tool to communicate in the Internet. While centralized solutions are prone to censorship, privacy violations and unwanted marketing of the users data, decentralized solutions, e.g. based on p2p technology, promise to overcome these limitations. One major shortcoming is the need to install additional software, which is progressively not accepted by users which are used to web-based applications. In this paper, we present how WebRTC can be used to implement an installation-free, fully decentralized online social network. With WebRTC, standard browsers can communicate directly, which allows to construct PKI secured p2p overlays with replicated and access-controlled, reliable storage. Evaluation shows that our approach is scalable in terms of the number of users and complies with performance requirements stated to today's social networks.
