Here I want to mention one last development of #Ibram-#Museus experiments with #theFediverse, which emerged as a very interesting opportunity: The App as an Adoption Strategy.

@michael, from #NewsMast, says the Fediverse is still a tech determined environment, where everything starts with a server or a protocol. But this is not the case for people in general or communities in general. For communities & people in #Brazil, #socialspaces start with an app."

Stop filming strangers in 2023

Viral TikToks often feature interviews with people on the street or quick shots of strangers going about their day. But without consent to film them for content, it ends up feeling exploitative and creepy.

First I’ve heard of the ‘Overton Window.’ It’s a scary concept / process to say the least. It’s happened before and will happen again. To recall a comment of George Santayana, “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”

Caroline, could you please point me to a paper or two covering the Overton Window? Preferably juried.
