We can appreciate 3 interpretations of #DemocraticTechnology
1) democratisation of access to tech
2) democratic governance of tech
3) e-democracy and civic tech

at the @fkinstitute we take the position of 2) - the democratic governance over shared resources, which involve technology, but first and foremost are about commoning: people sharing responsibility, knowledge and productive work, over a shared resource system.

🌩️ Social media is more turbulent than ever, reflecting society.

Now is our chance to help people move to democratic, open, social technology like the open social web.

We know that open social alternatives give control back to the user, now it is our job to bring more users to this social space.

If you want to help, share word of the open social web with the people around you.
