The People's Tech

https://social.coop/@thepeoplestech

Promoting #technology at the intersection of #privacy, #security, #sustainability AND #inclusivity.

Slowly rolling out:
• Public workshops discussing alternatives to Big Tech.
• Private consultation for co-ops, non-profits, and campaign groups on how to make better choices.

It’s time for the people to have control over their own tech - not governments and corporations.

Using Facebook in the UK? You may have received the message: “Want to subscribe or continue to use our Products for free with ads?” You can’t bypass it.

"Stories like these illustrate so well why the 'no politics!' crowd is so utterly misguided. Politics governs every aspect of our lives, especially so if you’re part of a minority group currently being targeted by the largest and most powerful state apparatus in the world." https://www.osnews.com/story/144348/the-chaos-in-the-us-is-affecting-open-source-software-and-its-developers/

The demand is palpable: UK urged to unplug from US tech giants as digital sovereignty fears grow https://www.theregister.com/2026/01/06/uk_urged_to_unplug_from/

Another tech co-op? Yes, but this is a little different. Privacy and security? Sure - though it's not just about your privacy and security, but everyone's (after all, none are free until all are free). There are alternative browsers led by people not friendly to the #LGBTQ+ community, there are sustainable computer companies with ties to hate speech. This isn't about that. This is about promoting alternatives to #BigTech at the intersection of #privacy #security #sustainability and #inclusivity.
