Remember when “social media” was “social networking”?

What changed? That second word: media. It’s all about capturing your attention and selling you stuff.

Humans are social and want to connect with one another. That’s what makes the #fediverse special to me - authentic connection. We haven’t forgotten the social part.

My proposal for an open workshop to work on "Individuals as objectives of empowerment; communities as point of implementation? Examples and collective exploration" was accepted in the MyData Conference!

If you are interested in #privacy, #PersonalDataSovereignty, and/or #PersonalIdentity please come and we will collaborate with other people passionate about these issues imagining better futures.

We'll work based on some real world examples (like the #Fediverse). ;)
