33 years ago today, I submitted a proposal for a system called the World Wide Web. I'd normally publish thoughts on the state of the web. But these are not normal times. Instead, @rosemaryleith & I ask you to join us to #StandWithUkraine however you can. webfoundation.org/2022/03/st…

To mark the web's birthday this year, @timberners_lee and I have donated to causes supporting women, children & journalists in Ukraine. Join us, if you can, to contribute and #StandWithUkraine. webfoundation.org/2022/03/st…

Brave keeps expanding its privacy-aware product portfolio with a search engine. Excellent mission and execution in hands of a Peter Thiel funded company. When will a decentralized venture accomplish similar achievements? techcrunch.com/2021/06/22/br…

Apple and Google intend to push pandemic trackers into most of the world's smartphones. In response, @ACLU just published a whitepaper listing bottom-line principles phone-based contact-tracing systems must follow to comply with basic rights. Summary: aclu.org/news/privacy-techno…

A well-designed tool could offer public health benefit, but a poorly designed one could pose unnecessary and significant risks to privacy, civil rights, and civil liberties.

We are working on a mobile app to offer an alternative to the Dutch #coronaApp that is privacy-preserving and decentralized. It will adhere to the technological demands of the ‘Veilig tegen corona’ manifesto (veiligtegencorona.nl/) 1/6

What about a (d)App that stores IDs of devices discovered through bluetooth/wifi for x days and warns those devices (if they install the #app in the meantime) in case you have been diagnosed with #Covid_19 ? This could be done anonymously @licuende @antirival @aral @jackdurose

Bringing big tech to heel: how do we take back control of the internet?

As the web evolves, we should ask how we can maximise its benefits for all and mitigate the obvious damage

Digital IDs have significant benefits, but they also pose one of the gravest risks to human rights of any technology. Good read by @solomonbrett wired.com/story/digital-ids-… wired.com/story/digital-ids-…

Digital IDs Are More Dangerous Than You Think

Opinion: Digital identification systems are meant to aid the marginalized. Actually, they're ripe for abuse.

.@Ecosia seems everything we wanted to do with @thegooddata (and we failed). With one difference: it should be great that they find the way to share ownership with their users. Would a DAO be an option? @TimSchu linkedin.com/pulse/our-compa…

Our company makes 10 million in revenues, yet today, we're donating all of our shares. Here's why...

Five years ago, I invested in Ecosia, the "search engine that plants trees“. From the minute I found out about the idea, I loved it.

Is facebook a "data factory" as @stratechery says? Data processing factory would be more accurate. Raw data is in fact created (and owned) by the people. Interesting read though stratechery.com/2018/data-fa…
...and a big leap for mankind. We really hope so. Data ownership in the cornerstone of the new internet. All our support to @inrupt_inc ow.ly/TOQP50jhf4q

We've always been told that only machines read our Gmail. It is not true. Is there any internal policy in place to protect us from developers misbehavior? ow.ly/wOK930kM9Ng

Gmail app developers have been reading your emails

It’s a common practice that’s gone largely unnoticed
