I'd talked myself out of posting a written version of the We Fix the Networks talk I did at XOXO because talks are performances and doesn't translate well to the cold medium of text.

@kissane That was an excellent talk, and so thought-provoking. Thank you.

@kissane thank you for sharing the talk on this platform and your research into a better self governed internet. It's hard not to see the struggle of independent networks as a fight for a collective identity that dares to hold capitalism responsible for poisoning the many to many channels.
Do you have the rest of the Atlantic piece that they declined?
-
@kissane Fantastic. Thank you.
-
@kissane I just watched your talk last night - it was very good! I’ve been following you for a while now, and had no idea you were on the Covid-19 tracking project. Incredible work.
-
@paullu Thank you so much! The tracking volunteers were just some of the best people I’ve ever had a chance to work with and I will always be so grateful to them

@NormalOperator Absolutely, and yes—when the main systems are unaccountable, building outside of them feels like the only way to get to accountability.
I do have the draft of that piece but I don’t think I’ll share more of it beyond the extract. Too close to the bone, tbh.

@BashStKid Thank you!
-
I’m so glad it clicked for you! Thank you for telling me!

@stegrainer Eeee thank you! I find video really hard to fit in a lot of the time. I so appreciate this.
