Aral Balkan added,
The European Commission isn’t known for its ethics. The closest we have to a democratic conscience in the EU is the EU Parliament.
Activities carried out under H2020 must comply with ethical principles and relevant national, EU and international legislation
Said principles on tech severely lacking: no mention of decentralised, zero-knowledge, interoperable, free/open See https://ind.ie/ethical-design
That's more about open source and diversity not so much about data protection and transparency which is what you meant right?
It’s exactly about protecting privacy/human rights. “Data protection” today is allowing the wolf the chicken coop but asking him to be nice.
What's the answer? More regulation, opt in not opt out? As consumers we rely on these companies to act in our best interest.
Some thoughts: https://ar.al/notes/encouraging-individual-sovereignty-and-a-healthy-commons … It’s the basis of the progressive tech policy we’re drafting at DiEM25: https://ar.al/notes/towards-an-internet-of-people-with-diem25 …
Thanks for the links, I hope to one day be more than armchair activist.
