#socialsovereignty — Public Fediverse posts

🇨🇦 I'm in #Vancouver for #AtmosphereConf

I will be speaking on Saturday within the #media & civics track about #digital #sovereignty and our 🇪🇺 experiences

Open #protocols based #social #networks are out there so we can achieve #socialsovereignty as important building blocks for our public digital #infrastructure ✨

I'm thankful to @wearenew_public who not only make my talk possible but also hosting the #open social awards which will be presented at @publicspaces conferences

"Public institutions are funded by taxpayers' money: their communications serve public interests and should be open to all - without the need of creating social media accounts on proprietary, for-profit closed systems. This is especially salient for European governmental communications: isn’t it absurd that they would require social media accounts owned and run by U.S. based companies?"

Is AI just a "slot machine" for random content, or is it a digital prosthetic for the neurodivergent mind? My latest essay explores how I use AI as a shield to protect my dignity and survive in a world not built for me.

[Opinion] Sovereignty was once exclusive to the powerful—governments, billionaires, and elites controlling the rules. Add "Social" and everything shifts.

[Summary] Why Mastodon and the Fediverse are essential for "Social Sovereignty." We must reclaim our digital identities from centralised corporate control.

@haubles @Mastodon

Para nós, #SocialSovereignty também significa garantir que criadores, instituições públicas e comunidades consigam se sustentar fora das plataformas extrativas — não como usuários tolerados, mas como sujeitos políticos e econômicos.

Ver o Mastodon avançar para uma governança mais comunitária e afirmar a soberania social como direito nos anima muito.

Esperamos que experiências do Sul Global possam dialogar com esse momento do fediverso, ampliando o que ele pode ser.

RE: https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon/115689198997943088

I’m proud to share my first blog as @Mastodon’s Community Director. Well the first one posted under my name at least 😉

Digital social networking is one of the most important threads in the fabric of our societies. Right now, we’re letting that thread be controlled by social media platforms that let advertisements for scams stay up because they’re profitable, and that use their algorithms to run human research experiments on us without our consent. That’s not the society I want.

“By making the news and truth contingent on advertising budgets we’ve created an environment where any narrative can win, as long as the storyteller is willing to pay. If we allow these conditions to continue, we will leave behind the voices that truly matter; the people and their public institutions. It is critical that those voices not be silenced forever. The promise of the #fediverse is the promise of a better way forward: free from ads and manipulative algorithms, a place built by and for people like you, where #SocialSovereignty is a right and not a privilege.”

In this thread, we asked folks to crowdsource a list of resources so you can find your local representative. Find them, contact them, and tell them this: if you care about a free and just future, and if you care about #DigitalSovereignty, you must leave X and join the fediverse.
