# Storage

{% hint style="info" %}
Coming soon!
{% endhint %}

We will store all the SoundOff answers on a public database called [IPFS](https://ipfs.tech/). IPFS gives each file a permanent address that anyone can access without having to ask SoundOff for permission.&#x20;

If you've been following the saga at Twitter, you may have heard that they recently [shut off database access](https://techcrunch.com/2023/01/19/twitterrific-tweetbot-app-store-removal-twitter-api/) to some of their long-standing partners with no warning or explanation. These shifts are possible because the last generation of social media companies think of *your* content as *their* property.

At SoundOff, we believe your content is a public good, and the world deserves to hear it without SoundOff's permission.&#x20;
