Invitation to weigh in
Project Liberty Institute
Institute colleagues: we need your research and policy record in the properties, not a paraphrase of a press release.
Project Liberty Institute is named as the home of research, policy engagement, and DSNP stewardship with academic partners. This page is a request: does our reading of that public mandate line up with how you actually work? We will adjust the pitch as you correct it.
Point us at papers, hearings, and protocol notes we should treat as corpus. Then weigh in on the DPs below, especially where civic memory, transparency, and community AI governance are still too thin.
If research stays outside the rule-set, commercial products will write the defaults. Help us encode what you already know before that happens.
Public packet only. Hypothesis marks stay until you confirm sources. Each Alliance member gets a different pitch so we can experiment.
