i'm not a developer and have been out of XDA since my HTC HD2 
like many of us i have security and privacy concerns regarding today's internet landscape. i had an idea which i'm not sure if it's feasible or not and therefore i'm dropping it here to see if anyone is willing to pick up the project.
i was considering a rom that could take advantage of the blockchain system for most of it's communications (i know, still not enough users), an with the following features:
- a sandbox system to run most apps, giving fabricated sensor data to the apps
- any internet access for the apps would have to be filtered through a firewall that would ask permission, (option for permanent permission or ask every time)
- the firewall would, where possible, identify the server/website that the app was contacting and provide some information about the data being transmitted
- some apps could be given trusted status by the user, (privacy warning given to the user).
- other security features such as the option to completely shutdown the radios.
i'm not aware of anything like this, specially the sandbox, any sugestions would be welcome
