The world really needs to work on decoupling their dependency on the US especially for something this vital. This should already have been a UN funded and run program at a minimum.

The UN has too many programs to handle and a limited budget
It’s the fascists playbook but the fucker can’t read properly.
can they put cve on a blockchain? or some publicly auditable distributed database?
its worrisome that all it takes is a funding cut to shut it down.
And a blockchain helps to solve which part of the problem? Some were working on mirroring all data to a git repository. In theory, that allows for easy access on all the data, versioning (with commits) and - through forks and merge requests - collaboration and distribution. Also git is a distributed repository that clones the whole history to your local drive.

But with the announcement of the cve foundation, I don't know whether they will really import all the data in this git repository.
