  • Open on social.coop

Promoting #technology at the intersection of #privacy, #security, #sustainability AND #inclusivity.

Slowly rolling out:
• Public workshops discussing alternatives to Big Tech.
• Private consultation for co-ops, non-profits, and campaign groups on how to make better choices.

It’s time for the people to have control over their own tech - not governments and corporations.

Aiming to become a co-op - interested? Get in touch!

The time to promote alternatives to Big Tech is now. Whether individuals, campaigners, groups, or organisations, there is a huge appetite for knowledge of alternatives. We want to help. In the UK and interested? Let us know!

"For decades, technology companies have been arriving in cities and communities with grand promises of jobs, efficiency, and automated utopias, but ultimately extracting far more than they delivered: land, water, public subsidies, data, democratic control over local decisions. The tools and the scale have changed; the pattern hasn’t." https://nextcity.org/urbanist-news/cities-in-the-shadow-of-the-server-a-reading-list-for-urbanists

"Stories like these illustrate so well why the 'no politics!' crowd is so utterly misguided. Politics governs every aspect of our lives, especially so if you’re part of a minority group currently being targeted by the largest and most powerful state apparatus in the world." https://www.osnews.com/story/144348/the-chaos-in-the-us-is-affecting-open-source-software-and-its-developers/

Just attended a drop-in from @workers_coop@social.coop and gained an incredible amount of information and support from the facilitators and other attendees too. Cooperation over competition! This is the way.

Great to be part of social.coop! Here's an #introduction: The People's Tech is aimed towards becoming a co-op based in England with a small team of Small Tech workers promoting technology at the intersection of privacy, security, sustainability, *and* inclusivity, Covid-safer and non-hierarchical, slowly rolling out public workshops discussing alternatives to Big Tech, plus private consultation for co-ops, non-profits, and campaign groups on how to make better choices (which has already begun!)
