Right in Realith

Right relates to the basis for disposing of an object, its content, its disclosure, its use, its transfer, or another substantial action.

This is the layer of the basis for a claim to the object or content, not a layer of technical possibility and not a layer of operator service.

Where right may come from

Right may have different origins, for example:

  • contractual;
  • legal;
  • internal organizational;
  • formally granted authority;
  • another recognized basis outside or inside a particular coordination contour.

But it must not automatically arise from the fact of storage, observation, infrastructural participation, or operator servicing.

What right does not automatically entail

Even if a subject has a right to an object or to content, it does not automatically follow that:

  • it is admitted to any network procedure;
  • it is permitted any action;
  • it has access to the entire technical surface;
  • it receives an unlimited claim against the network as a service.

Why this boundary is fundamental

Realith must retain architectural neutrality toward content and the bases attached to it.

Right must not be silently inferred from access, storage, or operator servicing. Otherwise, the primitive layer loses the distinction between the basis of claim, technical possibility, and service function.

Short formula

Right answers the question: on what basis may the subject claim the object, the content, or a substantial action.

It is not identical to:

  • admission;
  • permission;
  • access;
  • claim against the network.
