Invitation to weigh in
Project Liberty
We made this page to ask whether we are thinking about Project Liberty's concerns in the right way.
You already published a mission: restore agency by giving people ownership and control of their personal data, and a people-centered internet rather than platform capture. We started from that public corpus. This is not a score of your work. It is a working draft so Alliance members can correct us, add sources, and weigh in on the Desirable Properties that sit next to what you already stand for.
Tell us what we missed. Then open the Desirable Properties tab, follow one interest, and leave a specific patch idea if the text is wrong or incomplete.
The commercial internet had no pause in which communities could write the rules before platforms arrived. We are treating this as that pause: get the people's coordination space right, then invite the commercial world to play by community rules.
Public packet only. Hypothesis marks stay until you confirm sources. Each Alliance member gets a different pitch so we can experiment. Your pad is https://desirableproperties.org/pad/project-liberty (hyphens optional). Direct link to this tab: https://desirableproperties.org/pad/project-liberty?tab=values
