The Internet as we know is centralized and controlled by corporations and governments. Can we create an alternate peer to peer, distributed web? Building a network is not just about the intent, it’s also about consent. You need a code of conduct — ground rules that other people on the network agree to. That means acknowledging the complexity in the network and in the people. We need to think about care instead of control. Without care, everything is just code. How can we define care? We need to take into account access, ability, identity, and environment. The protocol we use now centralizes power unevenly, and prioritizes certain types of people and their habitats. To build a future where diverse communities are prioritized, we need to consider trust and care before code. Can we code to care, and can we code carefully?
據我們所知道互聯網是受集團與政府集中管理的，那麼我們可不可以開創一個另類對等平等的分佈網？建立網絡不僅僅和意圖有關，它和共識也很有關係。你需要一個操行的準則，一些規矩網路上的其他人都同意的基本規則，而這也意味著要承認網路中人和網絡的複習性。我們需要考量的是當中的關顧而非管制。除去關顧，其他的都只是代碼。那我們如何定義關顧？我們需要考慮戶口登入權限、能力、身份以及環境。現時我們所使用的網路協定將權力不不等地集中在某些單環上，並優先處理某種人及他們的地盤。為了建立一個優先考量多樣化社群的未來，我們需要在編程以前考慮信任與關懷。我們可以編程以關顧？我們可以小心編程嗎？
