Enjoyed this Atlantic article by Kaitlyn Tiffany that teases apart #web3 from the #dweb movement. And great to see Mai Sutton, Compost and Danny O'Brien get some space! // @TheAtlantic @kait_tiffany @maira @COMPOSTmag @mala @GETDWeb theatlantic.com/technology/a…

The Battle for the Soul of the Web

Long before the NFT boom or the Web3 backlash, an unglamorous movement was under way. Where does it stand now?

There is still time to submit ideas for the next issue of @COMPOSTmag, maybe something that thinks about the future of water and digital networks in the year, oh say... 2047?

the idea that creators, developers, and maintainers of public goods don't need to be paid is actually a capitulation to a financialized reality in which it's impossible to conceive of meaningful labor receiving compensation. it's not resistance

excellent way to start the year with my first publication of 2022! check out "E.I." and all the other amazing stories in this issue, each approaching the anthropocene from a different angle 🌍

This is a BIG DEAL. A couple quick thoughts: 1) This moment is a win. It's good to celebrate wins in the struggle for justice in the tech space. 2) This win was made possible by the foundational work of Black women computer scientists like @jovialjoy, @rajiinio, @timnitGebru

My jaw dropped to the floor when I got this news. Facebook is shutting down the facial recognition system that it introduced more than 10 years ago and deleting the faceprints of 1 billion people: nytimes.com/2021/11/02/techn…

Facebook, Citing Societal Concerns, Plans to Shut Down Facial Recognition System (Published 2021)

Saying it wants “to find the right balance” with the technology, the social network will delete the face scan data of more than one billion users.
