witchescauldronThe current media system is stacked against us. It’s rigged, exclusive, and hostile to alternatives.That’s why we need the Open Media Network.Because without an open, trust-based infrastructure for communication and coordination, we’re just shouting into silos.Let’s build something different.

witchescauldronWhat About Surveillance and Security?We’re honest: the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OMN" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#OMN</a> network can’t protect you from a fascist state. No tech can. But we can:Use pseudonymity with known-good peers.Whisper in the forest before posting.Protect sources while keeping distribution open.Use P2P crypto for the 20% of cases that need it — not the 80% that don’t.Unlike the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/encryptionists" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#encryptionists</a> or <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/geekproblem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#geekproblem</a> crowd, we’re not building bunkers.

Hamish CampbellBuilding Alt/Grassroots Media Networks to Challenge and Widen Traditional Media The current ecosystem of alternative and grassroots media is too narrow in its imagination of what media could, and should, be. There’s a persistent naivety or, in some cases, a self-serving dishonesty. Many of the most “successful” progressive media groups continue to mimic #traditionalmedia without understanding, or addressing, the fact that they do not control their distribution. In effect, they’re renting space in someone else’s empire. This is not just a mistake.

Hamish CampbellIf we close everything, we are left with the evil – A bad outcome What should be open? What is okay to be closed? Let’s begin from a traditional liberal framing: Most social interactions should be OPEN, some private or sensitive interactions may be CLOSED. This isn’t radical. It’s been a functional principle across free societies. But in our current digital culture, this simple framing is often flipped or ignored. Many developers, activists, and even funders uncritically push for closure, often in the name of privacy, safety and control, without […] <a class="" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/mastodon?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fhamishcampbell.com%2Fif-we-close-everything-we-are-left-with-the-evil-a-bad-outcome%2F&linkname=If%20we%20close%20everything%2C%20we%20are%20left%20with%20the%20evil%20%E2%80%93%20A%20bad%20outcome" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/reddit?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fhamishcampbell.com%2Fif-we-close-everything-we-are-left-with-the-evil-a-bad-outcome%2F&linkname=If%20we%20close%20everything%2C%20we%20are%20left%20with%20the%20evil%20%E2%80%93%20A%20bad%20outcome" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/linkedin?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fhamishcampbell.com%2Fif-we-close-everything-we-are-left-with-the-evil-a-bad-outcome%2F&linkname=If%20we%20close%20everything%2C%20we%20are%20left%20with%20the%20evil%20%E2%80%93%20A%20bad%20outcome" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/threads?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fhamishcampbell.com%2Fif-we-close-everything-we-are-left-with-the-evil-a-bad-outcome%2F&linkname=If%20we%20close%20everything%2C%20we%20are%20left%20with%20the%20evil%20%E2%80%93%20A%20bad%20outcome" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/bluesky?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fhamishcampbell.com%2Fif-we-close-everything-we-are-left-with-the-evil-a-bad-outcome%2F&linkname=If%20we%20close%20everything%2C%20we%20are%20left%20with%20the%20evil%20%E2%80%93%20A%20bad%20outcome" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/x?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fhamishcampbell.com%2Fif-we-close-everything-we-are-left-with-the-evil-a-bad-outcome%2F&linkname=If%20we%20close%20everything%2C%20we%20are%20left%20with%20the%20evil%20%E2%80%93%20A%20bad%20outcome" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/facebook?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fhamishcampbell.com%2Fif-we-close-everything-we-are-left-with-the-evil-a-bad-outcome%2F&linkname=If%20we%20close%20everything%2C%20we%20are%20left%20with%20the%20evil%20%E2%80%93%20A%20bad%20outcome" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="" href="https://www.addtoany.com/share" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a> <a href="https://hamishcampbell.com/if-we-close-everything-we-are-left-with-the-evil-a-bad-outcome/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://hamishcampbell.com/if-we-close-everything-we-are-left-with-the-evil-a-bad-outcome/</a>

Hamish CampbellWhat Do We Do With Our #Mainstreaming Alt-People? This is an old and familiar problem: people who say they want change but consistently choose the path that neutralises it. Welcome to the “common sense” #NGO worldview, currently being repackaged in the #Fediverse as things like the Fedi Foundation. It’s not new. It’s not empowering. It’s a tired institutional gravity that drags every radical project into a fog of bureaucracy, branding, and paid careers.

This is the story of that path—slow, volunteer-driven, underfunded, but deeply rooted.<a href="https://unite.openworlds.info/Open-Media-Network/openwebgovernancebody/wiki/Out+reac+sort+story+-+Title:+Stalls+and+Code.-" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://unite.openworlds.info/Open-Media-Network/openwebgovernancebody/wiki/Out+reac+sort+story+-+Title:+Stalls+and+Code.-</a>

Hamish CampbellWhat should be closed? And what should never be? A conversation about ideology, sociology, and the #openweb. Let’s start with a basic liberal framework: “Most social interactions should happen in the open. Some personal interactions should remain private.” Seems reasonable, right? That’s the position many of us think we agree on. Yet when we look at how our technology, and by extension, our society, is being built, that balance is totally out of whack. Today, more and more of life is CLOSED: Closed apps. Closed data.

Hamish CampbellCapitalism is a hostage situation -Not an economy Our current #mainstreaming path of paywalls stacked on paywalls isn’t life, it’s a trap, we need a way out. In our everyday lives, we’ve come to accept the absurd: You pay to eat food grown on land you don’t own, Pay to sleep under a roof that someone profits from, Pay to drink water privatized by corporations, Pay to breathe, because the air is poisoned by industries that sell you both the problem and the solution. And if you miss a payment? Game over.

Hamish CampbellReal world tackling the #geekproblem DRAFT With rebooting the #openweb we run headfirst into the #geekproblem, a recurring pattern where: Technically brilliant people build powerful tools …but those tools remain socially unusable …or solve only geek problems, not the needs of actual communities. It’s not malice, often it’s idealism, but it creates a dead-end culture of endless prototypes, abandoned standards, and empty tech demos. Meanwhile, the real-world crisis deepens.The work we need is bridges building, let’s […] <a class="" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/mastodon?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fhamishcampbell.com%2Freal-world-tackling-the-geekproblem%2F&linkname=Real%20world%20tackling%20the%20%23geekproblem" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/reddit?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fhamishcampbell.com%2Freal-world-tackling-the-geekproblem%2F&linkname=Real%20world%20tackling%20the%20%23geekproblem" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/linkedin?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fhamishcampbell.com%2Freal-world-tackling-the-geekproblem%2F&linkname=Real%20world%20tackling%20the%20%23geekproblem" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/threads?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fhamishcampbell.com%2Freal-world-tackling-the-geekproblem%2F&linkname=Real%20world%20tackling%20the%20%23geekproblem" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/bluesky?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fhamishcampbell.com%2Freal-world-tackling-the-geekproblem%2F&linkname=Real%20world%20tackling%20the%20%23geekproblem" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/x?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fhamishcampbell.com%2Freal-world-tackling-the-geekproblem%2F&linkname=Real%20world%20tackling%20the%20%23geekproblem" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="" href="https://www.addtoany.com/add_to/facebook?linkurl=https%3A%2F%2Fhamishcampbell.com%2Freal-world-tackling-the-geekproblem%2F&linkname=Real%20world%20tackling%20the%20%23geekproblem" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a><a class="" href="https://www.addtoany.com/share" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank"></a> <a href="https://hamishcampbell.com/real-world-tackling-the-geekproblem/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://hamishcampbell.com/real-world-tackling-the-geekproblem/</a>

Dom Arbuthnott<a href="https://kolektiva.social/@witchescauldron" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@witchescauldron</a> "By fundamentally abandoning the pursuit of artificial scarcity and focusing on shared abundance, we foster this better, more humane path. For this to work, we need to address the <a href="https://mastodon.green/tags/geekproblem" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#geekproblem</a> by placing as much value on social solutions as we do on technical ones, to create tech that supports community needs rather than hindering them. This path values process over product, relationships over transactions, and social well-being over profit." Fine words indeed

Hamish CampbellComposting the EU Tech Mess: From #NLnet to #Eurostack There’s an old rot in the heart of European tech policy – and it’s not just from the corporate lobbies. It’s also sprouting from the well-funded, #NGO-flavoured corners of what should have been grassroots. A contradiction that tells us everything we need to know about how broken the current #EU #mainstreaming crew and paths are. Take #Eurostack for example, on paper, it looks decent: a collaborative push toward European digital sovereignty, resilience, and open-source infrastructure.
