Users truly own their assets and data, and no company can freeze, imprison, or censor them. Polkadot aims to change the current internet—today’s internet is built on unfair transaction foundations, where users trade privacy and data sovereignty for free services. The platform is dedicated to creating an internet where applications cannot spy on user privacy, assets cannot be frozen, and data cannot be sold. On Polkadot, transparency, user control, and immutable rules are inherent platform features.
