Yes WEI operated between layer 5 and 7.

But the day your bank and insurance implement WEI, it'll going to be too late to switch to another protocol. Your existence will depend on it.

Honestly, I think at some point we will need something similar to WEI to ensure we’re interacting with other humans in a hostile AI internet.

  • Just like CAPTCHAs, WEI won't actually prove that you are a human, just that you are using an approved setup.

  • Before we ever come to this point I hope as a society we take a real swing as dismantling big tech. So much potential is being hoarded by literal dragons of progress.
