Super excited to be back to Berlin for @republica and to have spent 3 days discussing all things digital society. And to see advocates like @F_Kaltheuner' speak - 'Let's not give agency to AI. AI makes no decisions itself - they are made by people who design it.' #rf22

We already know little about how Twitter handles content moderation or how their algorithms work, and taking the company private makes it likely we will know less. What we do know is this: two billionaires will now control four of the major digital public sphere platforms.

I have been thinking about some of the barriers to #CitizenEngagement and participation. It occurs to me that we built many apps and platforms and we forgot humans. @aeyakuze@oso@sarahtlucas @TomOrrell86 @Jackiemungai_@okagwe_ @alvinbabji
