If Facebook was the Blackberry, HowAbout is the iPhone’

The idea for HowAbout sprouted back in 2014. I understood where the world was heading and that confidence in governments would fade. Today, there is no question that I was right. Fraudulent elections in the US covered up by the powerful tech corporations that work together with politicians and the mainstream media press, European countries all working together to install fear among the people through a minor pandemic as a means to install an insane plan called ‘The Great Reset’ to rebuild the world – but in fact suppress people and control them similar to communist China, people in the commonwealth countries being terrorised by draconian measures presumably to stop an ex-pandemic that is actually systematically upheld by fake tests results from a test that isn’t ever made for this purpose and where the creator of the test has confirmed it is not a tool to discover contagion by a virus.
The people’s freedom is under siege. In most western countries, freedom of speech is also under attack, for which there are shocking examples that have gone viral of cases in Australia, Germany, and plenty in the UK and the US.
Finally, where censorship once was a tool for repressive regimes of both left and right, today it is also standard practice in all western countries. Facebook, Youtube, Twitter and Google all use their power and money to push a political agenda they will participate in once their president has taken his position. Technology has become the prior means for corruption.

Freedom of Speech

There is so much to say on HowAbout that it will take far too much explanation to explain all it’s facets but here are some features that matter TODAY :

– free and private speech on all levels

– private sharing on your personal timeline with selected friends

– public sharing on your personal timeline is still only visible by all your friends and nobody else

– next level sharing only in moderated topic groups including corporate and ngo groups and more, so no worldwide public sharing, and no trouble about it.

The only possible censorship is done by you on your own timeline or in a group by the moderator of that group. Feeling more relaxed yet?

Easy and intuitive sharing on all levels

Main question is ‘how complicated is it’? Well it is quite intuitive and a lot easier than making a private group on facebook, and a lot more private since facebook basically checks everything you post. Just like the iPhone, you have to rethink your behaviour when you use HowAbout the first couple of times, but very soon you will find it makes a lot more sense in many ways.

Be in charge of what you share

So how come we don’t need to read your data and sell it to companies to offer them leads and run ads on your page about stuff you were talking about with a friend – stuff you may not need at all? Because you are in charge on what you share. Once companies start to create a presence on HowAbout, you can follow them, and in return, you will allow them a to place ads on your timeline. We think it makes a lot more sense for you to have ads of stuff you like on your page. Moreover, this way your friends can see your interests and you may create a conversation this way, or even get encouraged to join you in your hobby. After all, the best advertising is still through a friend.  Much better than ads for stuff you never asked for.

And just to remind you, Google and Yahoo are also reading your emails. I remember seeing ads on Facebook about a topic I sent an email on to my brother just minutes before. Frankly I was in shock. They may see it as a service, but I felt it like an intrusion in my private life. How about you?
That is why we developed a web version and a download version for professionals. HowAbout can perfectly replace email and you won’t ever get spam any more since you control who can reach you.

How come it has been quiet on HowAbout for a long time?

I tried for years to make investors understand the world needs this app. You may even wonder how a 6 year old concept still has not been out of date up to today. Well that happens when a product is not understood, when what it offers is not ‘yet’ an issue. Well it is now, and I’m ready. The other problem was there just is no simple way to explain this application in less than twenty minutes, whereas they expect you to do it in five.
Only just a few months ago I finally came up with a fitting pitch line : ‘If Facebook was the Blackberry, HowAbout is the iPhone’ : it simply just makes a lot more sense and is adapted to the society we live in today. The only ones that are not going to like it are the governments and big tech, because they will lose power over the people and money. Like it already?

Sure, the prototype needs to be updated to todays standards, and some elements may need to be added, but the final version will also have options that nobody else is offering, simply because the concept has not been copied so far, and that concept is what offers unique capabilities. So yes, a redesign is needed, but we don’t need to rethink the product. And yeah, we may have to rebrand it, but let’s face it, that is the least of our concerns. If you have a great idea for a name, let us know.

So I am looking for people who want to invest. Finishing the current design and having a fully operational product will need about 100.000 USD with launch within a year. A complete redesign and rebranding will take a more time and money, estimated 250.000 USD and release 2022. Feel free to get in touch with me.
