@krislindvall i agree in general and in many cases this would be possible. But there are also many use cases where algorithms need more data than just your own. E.g. to detect a traffic jam on the way to your work and estimate the time you will need.

Right, so let’s separate data about the world with data about people. Data about the world should belong to the commons, data about people to people. X Corp doesn’t need to know where you live or work to tell you when you’ll get from one to the other.
-
i agree, but the lines might blur. E.g. in order to enable google maps to detect a traffic jam, movement data from many smart phones on the track are needed. It might be possible to collect and use this information in a privacy friendly way, but it is just one example.

Another example would be speech recognition. You need a lot of training data to make it work. If everyone has to train it's own devices this might not work. There might be ways to provide the training data in a privacy friendly way, but again a example where it is not that easy
-
To finish with a positive example. I have a smartwatch syncing all data only with my smartphone thanks to Gadgetbridge and in the future maybe with my Nextcloud. That's a example where "keeping data only for yourself" works great.

Or even better - don’t tailor stuff for me! There’s actual value in serendipity of discovering things that are outside my preferred bubble. Maybe I would be interested in that book, but since targeted marketing is only echo chambering me, I will never see it.

100% agree. A video service showing an ad related to the video being watched is a whole lot acceptable than one that shows ads relevant to the person watching.

Time to make "edge computing" the new hip thing.

I've been saying for 15 years the next-generation web will be people-centric/subject-oriented. We are now seeing a transition from a capital intensive intermediated transaction economy to a (smart) capital lite services economy. Intellectual capital is replacing finance capital
-
Not so sure about that. We have had a different balance between labour and capital since the Black Death, AI and automation may reverse that.
-
Good point. I think finance capital as we know it (debt, equity, property & money as objects) will be superseded by new (actually ancient) open institutions & instruments which will frame a services economy
