The Airlock Model (Rented → Airlock → Owned)

Core Definition

The three-stage audience migration protocol for moving attention from rented platforms to owned infrastructure. Stage 1 (Rented Layer): Syndicated social Splinters generate attention on platform. Stage 2 (Airlock Layer): A Gateway page captures emails and applies a specific tag. Stage 3 (Owned Layer): Access to the Sanctum, memberships, private lists, the Backchannel, where the relationship is finalized away from platform volatility. The goal: convert Renters (social followers) into Owners (database members).
