Editor's Notes
- #2 This presentation is about the first customer data cooperative, TheGoodData An venture built to help users enjoy the ownership of their data
- #3 Data is created by us and therefore should be owned by us, as well. It is not just about privacy, it is about something primal to it, which is ownership. Only if we remain owners of our data we are sovereigns to decide wether to keep it private, share it or trede it
- #4 Saving distances, if we step back, something similar happened with labour at the time of sclavism Data is a factor of production of the new economy and should be owned by us if we want to preserve our welfare and freedom
- #5 There may be no big reason to worry today, water is still mild. From time to time there are some data leaks. Nothing serious because companies valuations are not impacted by them (ebay, Target, etc). Water may be getting warmer as we start co-creating companies with tremendous valuations without seeing any cut out of them (facebook, whatsapp, etc) We may start getting a bit aslept by the time when we’ve been rejected of insurance or a loan based on our data, on our friends data, or on the data of people similar to us. We may end up being a dish of frog legs by the time when most of our decisions are filtered by our data. The offers we receive, the books we buy, the places we visit, the political news we read, the people that we get to know in social networks or dating sites, the jobs that are being offered, etc All of them may be biased, limited by our data. This is what is called filter bubble. And it ends up when we end up doing what companies algorithms decide what should we do
- #6 The only way to win back data ownership is about the approach The only way to achieve an ambitious goal as this one is with openness and collaboration This collaboration can make people/Customers stay on an equal footing in front of companies that, otherwise would be in a dominant position This power of crowds should help us earn back data ownership, that means: being aware of data created: data browsing, location, etc being in control of it: deciding who should have access to it and under what circumstances (linked data,...) being able to agree fair terms with companies (it should not be a matter of take it or leave it propositions like facebook or google do) in an easy customer-centric way (creative commons of data)
- #7 Like with earth production factors, data cooperatives are owned by their producers. Instead of ranchers that own the cooperative in exchange of bringing their milk, users become the only owners of the company by handing out their data to the cooperative Each of the Members become then a company owner with the right, among others, to vote in General Meetings Being a cooperative, the company cannot be sold and data either (asset lock clause) The cooperative takes the responsibility of tasks that cannot be done by users, either by complexity, lack of time or unbalance relationship with companies
- #8 First objective has been to set up a legal structure and a basic prototype that helps users browse more safely making their data work for a good cause
- #9 Once first goal has been achieved, there are thousands of ways to improve ownership over our data In order to address those goals, TheGoodData has build an open ecosystem where contributors will be rewarded if they want to build new functionality over existing code and data
- #10 Now there are three ways you can help us. Without the participation of all of us we will lose ownership of our data. Let’s react!
