🧵2of2 This is why building ethical alternatives matters.

The #SocialWeb exists because we refused to accept that surveillance capitalism was inevitable.

We chose #federation over centralization.

#CommunityOwnership over corporate control.

We need the same approach for #WearableTech

Hardware that clearly indicates when it's recording. Software that keeps data local. Designs that prioritize consent over convenience.

The question isn't whether this technology will exist. It's who gets to control how it works.

Meta's approach serves advertisers and data brokers. A community-driven approach would serve actual human safety and dignity.

My framework: Technology should expand human agency, not reduce it.

When surveillance tools are marketed as consumer convenience, we have a responsibility to call out the real consequences for vulnerable people.

What's your take? How do we build wearable tech that serves community safety instead of corporate surveillance?
