I made a few other federation optimizations like sharing the private keys for every local user, and an experimental new protocol transport for real time federation between loops servers

I'm really pushing the boundaries, again 😎

> sharing the private keys for every local user

This sounds weird. Did you mean public keys?

@keverets both, the private would be used for signing/http sigs and the public for each actor object

@dansup interesting. Sharing of private keys makes them seem significantly less (or not) private. Devil's in the details, I guess. Just sounded quite odd and at odds with expextations

@dansup I would prefer you didn't share keys. Http sigs should function as a remote authentication method. Sharing the keys makes it impossible to know that a message is from who it claims to be. That would mean enforcing blocks would require blocking everyone who shares that key.
