Love this clip from @molly0xfff's Fediverse House talk:

"Imagine for a moment a web where communities can create their own spaces while still simultaneously and seamlessly interoperating with others. Think of it like a network of independent neighborhoods, each with its own character and rules, but with shared community spaces, art galleries and libraries.

In this web, you control what you create and decide how it's shared.The algorithms that shape that experience, they're transparent and customizable. You can peek under the hood or tweak them to your liking or replace them entirely if they're not serving your needs. If you're sharing a space with a group of others and you disagree with how they run that space, you can leave, but you can take your work and your community with you.

"This isn't just a dream. This is already happening. Take Mastodon and the broader Fediverse, where millions of people are building communities that talk to each other across servers and platforms."

"We are now at a time in history where the power of certain corporations, especially in the digital realm, might be the largest ever in history at the expense of our social cohesion, our mental health and our democracies."

Idag är det ett längre inslag jag är med i på ett hörn i Ekonomiekot Extra om svårigheterna med hanteringen av data mellan EU och USA i en tid där Trumpregimen monterat ner de mekanismer satta att garantera skydd mot EU-medborgares data.
