Doty Plan 2021
I am a citizen technologist. Technology affects every part of our lives, not deterministically, but in ways that we as a society can influence. We can design the Internet to further the public interest and support values like privacy, accessibility, free expression and autonomy.
Our use and mis-use of technology drives our environmental unsustainability.
Goals
- stay healthy
eat well, meditate, seek counseling, bike and hike, avoid covid, be kind to myself
- support and seek support from family
write and call family and friends
- support privacy in the architecture of the Web and the Internet
participate in PING
build systemic, relational effort to support privacy in Web architecture
explore using interoperability to combat consolidation
- build a career in public interest technology
search for a job ✅ and a longer-term career plan, involving technical contribution, for a better Internet
- take actions on the climate crisis
reduce carbon emissions, build local communities, engage in political processes
This Month
I'm focusing on:
- reaching out to colleagues
- developing detailed work vision
- finding therapy
And habits:
- gardening plants and websites
- walking or biking every day
- meditating
