#newsnight you are talking about Poundland and nationalising Poundland, when will this country or the world realise that this is a far bigger problem, crazy to talk about rise in energy prices when we all know we have an abundance that it can’t distribute 😔

Your data should be yours - but right now it and you are being traded by tech companies for profit. @pooldata is the best solution I have seen to form and scale data unions to dramatically improve the data economy. I’m going to do what I can to help. pooldata.io/blog/andrew-yang…

Move over GDPR, the DGA, DMA, DSA, and DA are coming … Excellent write up from @GilbertHill on the @poolfoundation blog about what these imminent laws mean in the context of data unions👇🏼
Last week I was in Brussels for the imminent launch of 4 new EU data regulations - why the DMA is a "BFD" & what this all means for data unions... pooldata.io/blog/eu-regulati…

Thank you @dltMOBI for inviting me to talk at length on how the mobility industry could create one of the most powerful data generating ecosystems on the planet. They just need to create a cooperative data union. THREAD 👇
"Vehicles, although computerized and even electrified, are not digitally native. Vehicles should be far more powerfully connected to users from an information perspective, but the siloing of mobility data prevents this from happening."
