Aiur is by design an open, community-governed platform. As such, its code can not be effectively controlled, and third parties can not be excluded from forking it for alternative redeployments. And if that brings with it additional positive impact, the better!

Having said this, we believe in the value of solid network effects built through first mover advantages. And that the Aiur community will be able to protect the value generated as it develops through a combination of governance and economic incentives.
