You wrote. "Sentivate is designed to be a realistic and viable replacement for the increasingly sluggish Web we have today." But what does it mean? Will your Internet work as an add-on over an existing one or as an independent one? Will you run your cables along the bottom of the ocean between continents, will you launch your satellites?
It's an independent Web from the existing WWW. Sentivate has it's own Domain Naming System, rule set, protocol, and overall design. This fracture away from DNS puts it into it's own "Web" or what is typically referred to as the "internet". If you are into the more technical details a read up over Minimalt is a good start. Uses the exact same infrastructure but we have plans for adding additional devices and hardware to the network as stated on the FAQ. However, the additional hardware is not required but would be ideal for the full vision. Another main point which automatically puts it onto a separate web is it's data transfer protocol being based on UDP instead of TCP. This obviously points to the fact that it doesn't use HTTP/s. Sentivate's protocol is UDSP, instead of going into more detail here you can visit our site and go to to the network dropdown for details regarding the protocol itself.
If you would like to know more about "alternate webs" or "alternate Internets" the early founding of the web itself is just that. There were competing DNSs and networks in the early days of the web. It's similar to that in the sense of the DNS being different. The exceptions being Sentivate uses an entirely different protocol, domain rules, and various other new systems introduced to the network like an Identity Registrar.
"sluggish Web we have today" The best way I can summarize that is it gets down to TCP(HTTP/s), TLS, and DNS. In regards to this DARPA has a quick short summary that just about hits the nail on the head

The question is a typical confusion we hear. The web we have today in which we type bitcointalk.org and go to the website relies on a system known as DNS. This takes human readable names and grabs the associated record and returns it to you which points to an IP address. This handy thing called DNS is actually a huge aspect of the web. Without a system like it you couldn't type in human readable names and arrive at your destination server. You would be left to IP addresses only. The web is not just the cables that run in the ground it's much of the software that it relies on. Most folks we hear this from assume in order to have an alternate web that this must mean you would need cables and all sorts of hardware. This is an incorrect assumption. All one needs to do in order to create an "alternate web" is to create your own independent Domain Name System with your own records; ETC. Another thing that makes the web what it is today is the data transport protocols & encryption layer being - TCP(HTTP/TLS).
Sentivate takes an entirely different perspective on building a web right from the start. For example our base protocol is UDP instead of TCP. We have a domain system that is utterly different than DNS. The list goes on.
