#FreeOur Feeds is overseen by these nine: #NabihaSyed, executive director at #Mozilla Foundation; #RobinBerjon, independent technologist; #MarkSurman, president at Mozilla Foundation; #MalloryKnodel, executive director at #SocialWebFoundation; #EliPariser, co-founder of #Avaaz; #PhilBeaudoin, entrepreneur; #MarcFaddoul, co-founder of #AIForensics; #DeeptiDoshi, co-director at #New_ Public; and #SherifElsayedAli, executive director at #FutureofTechnologyInstitute.

And the group arrives with endorsements from a set of celebrities, academics, entrepreneurs, politicians, journalists, and activists, including Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales, Harvard Business School Professor Emerita Shoshana Zuboff, Incredible Hulk actor Mark Ruffalo, and activist and author Cory Doctorow.”

"Given the fast-growing complexity of our digital lives, we are facing with high probability and inside of a few years the dystopia of a single company inserting itself as the broker for all of our transactions with third parties. As a community, we need to become systematic and unforgiving in hardening our architectures against capture and we need to do it proactively rather than reactively."
