Meta-Layer Infra SIG
Building the civic layer of the Internetâwhere trust, presence, and sovereignty come alive above the page.
We are launching the worldâs first Internet Society Special Interest Group (SIG) dedicated to the meta-layerâa shared civic substrate above the web. This is where overlays, semantic trails, and composable governance reshape how we experience and govern digital life.
Our Mission
The Meta-Layer SIG exists to prototype interface-level civic infrastructure for a trustworthy Internet. We believe the next leap in digital life wonât come from new platforms, but from a meta-layer that sits above themâwhere overlays, trust signals, and semantic trails transform the web into a shared civic space.
We are advancing the 21 Desirable Properties of a human-aligned Internet: privacy, sovereignty, transparency, free speech, regeneration, and collective intelligence.
