Feels like returning home
-
Hi Folks, arriving here, for me feels like returning home. Home to the hopeful past, when NCSA Mosaic liberated us from being boxed in mailboxes. Just that the vision of Tim Berners-Lee progressively had been turned into a cocktail composed of ingredients from Orwells 1984, BraveNewWold, Fahrenheit 451, and B.F. Skinner's operant conditioning. Protecting oneself by some individual safety measures would be enough to stay a liberated indindividual turns out to be a naive belief. Ed Snowden is right, it needs a collective effort to change the situation to the better.
I'll look around here for a while occasionally. Might be I can contribute. Nearly nothing on the subject "Vivaldi" from the coder or user perspective, but once in a while a bit around philosophical aspects of the project. The reasons for Vivaldi and my own projects in digital media indirectly might be related. -
