Techfestival talk

I went to TechFestival in September and did a talk at the Algorithmic Sovereignty summit. The talk touches on how Scuttlebutt can be used to regain some sovereignty over how data is shared and bring transparancy to the algorithms that runs on the data. The whole summit was a wonderful experience with lots of interesting people and discussions. When talking about these issues most people talk about the negative aspects of current systems such as Facebook, but rarely about solutions so I was really happy to give a more solarpunk positive story. The problems are really hard as it intersects human nature and technology but are increasingly important in todays society.
