Next Tuesday: DWeb Meet Up SF on Self-Sovereign Identity & Data
This Tuesday: it's all about controlling your own data
Ever wonder why the Web platforms we use get to control our identities, our data and our media? Is there a way that identity and data could be "self-sovereign" (controlled by the individual not the corporations?) That's the subject at our next SF DWeb Meet Up-- this Tuesday April 30 from 6-9 pm. We'll show you three new approaches to taking back control of your identity and your data. Up this month: DWeb Meet Up SF is excited to welcome our friends from DWeb Meetup Berlin: Ellie Stephens and Eugeniu Rusu of Jolocom who will share the latest on self-sovereign identity management (aka: "how to own yourself"). Then the Jolocom Team will show you how to use Jolocom in your own work & life. (See how Joachim Lohkamp gave his new surfboard a Decentralized Identity!) Next, Mark Nadal (ERA founder and author of GUN) gives you a first look at the new privacy extension that stops mass surveillance capitalism, called "Private Party." Later we'll break into small groups to discuss the social, legal, cryptographic, and political impact of this technology, and how decentralized systems are uniquely suited to address societal problems. Finally, you know about Sir Tim Berners-Lee's SOLID-- the open source platform built to decentralize the web by allowing you to decide where your data gets stored. Inrupt is the company founded by Berners-Lee to bring SOLID to market. Inrupt engineer, Jackson Morgan, will demo the latest in Solid/Inrupt and lead a workshop on how to build apps using SOLID protocols. So come hear the latest and join a hands-on workshop from leaders in decentralized tech.
And have you heard about DWeb Camp?
Tuesday, we'll share the latest on DWeb Camp--July 18-21! Registration opened this week to this 4-day retreat about decentralization, tech, creativity, art, nature and community.
