Another tech co-op? Yes, but this is a little different. Privacy and security? Sure - though it's not just about your privacy and security, but everyone's (after all, none are free until all are free). There are alternative browsers led by people not friendly to the #LGBTQ+ community, there are sustainable computer companies with ties to hate speech. This isn't about that. This is about promoting alternatives to #BigTech at the intersection of #privacy #security #sustainability and #inclusivity.

I've been getting so much interest in this concept! I've even started tasters already. But I've called it The People's Tech not just because the people - and not governments and corporations - should have control over their own tech, but because I want it to be controlled by its workers and even members. I'm a graduate of the School for Social Entrepreneurs but I want to be part of a democratic #NonProfit organisation and that means a #cooperative model. I've facilitated tech workshops for years but finance/accounts is hardly my biggest strength. If you're in #England, have such skills, are passionate about alternatives to #BigTech, and would like to be part of a part-time, remote, #Covid safer, scaleable small tech co-op, let me know! I guess I ought to add #FediHire to this, even though I'm not technically "hiring" anyone! Feel free to boost.
