Small Technology
Small Technology is everyday tools for everyday people designed to increase human welfare, not corporate profits.
Principles of small technology:
- easy to use
- personal
- private by default
- share alike
- peer-to-peer
- interoperable
- zero knowledge
- non-commercial
- non-colonial
- inclusive
Thoughts: not sure I agree with how they say that the small web is single-tenant. Collaboration is important! We use the web not because its easy to own our stuff, but because it should be easy to do stuff with others.
