Reclaiming territory in cyberspace

libresolutionsnetwork.substack.com

Humanity has lost cyberspace to corporations, corruption, and algorithmic control. It is of utmost importance that we increase people’s general technological understanding. We can all build a human-centric cyberspace instead of one used to dominate and control us.

Reclaiming territory in cyberspace is going to be the main benefit for paid subscribers. The goal is to provide a course that will help you transform your interactions with technology to make it work for you rather than against you. Each article will help put an important aspect of our digital lives into perspective. With this knowledge, you’ll be able to make better choices on products you buy and software you use. The course will guide you into building powerful habits that empower you and others. Over time, building a foundation of knowledge that will be directed at taking concrete action to protect your data.

This course is intended for anyone who would like to improve their technical literacy. If you’re someone who wants to move from technology intruding on your life, to using technology to create meaningful change; this course is for you!

I will be monitoring the comments actively; so I will be able to answer questions and respond to feedback. If there is significant interest collective projects can be an option.
For advanced and intermediate users this may be more of a refresher. You may instead want to share this course with someone you think may benefit from it.

Reclaiming Territory in Cyberspace: #3 The world wide web
This is one of the most critical posts in the series. The primary battlefield in the information war is the world wide web. A majority of internet users aren’t actually users. They are captives of digital kingdoms that harvest their data, control their interactions, and manipulate them. Breaking free requires not only escaping these digital fiefdoms but also helping others do the same…

Reclaiming Territory in Cyberspace: #6 Censorship avoidance
One of the more troubling trends of our time is the outright suppression of alternative points of view.
