Having tried the #TeamPixel camera while at #UNOSW recently, I can say that such smartphones are wildly overrated, yields pretty poor results especially indoors or in full harsh sun. Low-quality / low details, bad exposure and saturation, and the much touted fake shallow depth of field bokeh blurs the wrong things most of the time.

To continue creating and sustaining open digital infrastructure that serves the public interest, we need to: understand how these different layers work, how they connect, and address them intentionally.

It’s great to see the experts from our delegation actively contributing with their expertise – helping shape the discussions with their experience working on critical digital technologies.
