Users of the Web often have issues with how they are treated by developers and how the Web has evolved to be hostile against users and more geared toward creating consumers. Naturally, users have many criticisms and say that the Web should be this instead or developed like this instead to create a better Web environment. I wonder, then, about the other side of this “dilemma”: what could one do to be a good citizen of the current Web?

    “Be conservative in what you send, be liberal in what you accept” (with no political meaning intended in the use of the ‘c’ and ‘l’ words).

    Sort of the same deal for “what can one do to be a good citizen of the world.” That is, “do your best to operate in an ethical way and encourage others to do the same despite how the broader system is constructed.”

    To be slightly more specific, stuff like finding, using, and publicizing more ethical websites, platforms, and technologies where possible. And most importantly, contribute in whatever way works for you. The web is meant to encourage collaboration and sharing but it has turned largely into a medium to Consume - spend some time Creating things.

    To push reason and love against Neo-Nazi and anti-vax. To boldly go where no civility has gone before … from the comfort of your home !
