As the media industry is going down the drain we need to leverage new tools to serve the democracy, and keep the public eye on the authorities. Those tools are the internet as a free and unrestricted platform, an upgrade of the concept ”open government”, and ourselves. We must start caring about the tools, and then we must start sharing our knowledge. - - - If it's not online (and freely, safely available) it's not really public If knowledge is not shared it's not really knowledge - - - Start caring about the free internet and public data Start sharing everything you know
