RESCHEDULED
This session was moved from Dec 4 because of family sickness.

The Internet started as a decentralized academic network and morphed into something dominated by a few social media giants that now mediate how we connect and communicate. There’s a now an opportunity to shift back to a more decentralised internet, where control lies with users,. From Mastodon to Bluesky, a new vision of social networking is taking shape – one that echoes the Internet’s original peer-to-peer principles. This workshop will touch on Past, Present and Possible Futures of our digitally connected world. Free to attend. Koha appreciated.
