Big tech corporations, select media companies and closed governments control the content on the Internet, the data that flows across the Internet and how people connect to the Internet. This dystopian future is closer than you may think.\r\n\r\nOn the flip side, what is the utopian version of the Internet in 2027? What future do we want to build? Where do emerging technologies like AI, mesh networking and Blockchain fit in? How do we ensure people are the most important part of the Internet?\r\n\r\nJoin us at Mozfest as we look into the future. Dystopian, utopian or somewhere in between—let’s explore the Internet of 2027.\r\n\r\nSubmit a proposal now - https://mozillafestival.org/spaces#Decentralization\r\n\r\n","creator":{"login":"mmmavis","id":2896608,"avatar_url":"https://avatars1.githubusercontent.com/u/2896608?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmmavis","html_url":"https://github.com/mmmavis","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmmavis/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmmavis/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmmavis/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmmavis/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmmavis/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmmavis/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmmavis/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmmavis/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/mmmavis/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"open_issues":60,"closed_issues":2,"state":"open","created_at":"2017-05-29T21:41:25Z","updated_at":"2017-08-18T13:29:53Z","due_on":null,"closed_at":null},"comments":2,"created_at":"2017-08-01T06:39:06Z","updated_at":"2017-08-18T14:08:52Z","closed_at":null,"body":"**[ UUID ]** 2a0887b0-5111-453f-ba46-e788dde96a94\n\n**[ Session Name ]** Democratize your identity: A case study\n**[ Primary Space ]** Decentralization\n**[ Secondary Space ]** Privacy and Security\n\n\n**[ Submitter's Name ]** Rabimba Karanjai\n**[ Submitter's Affiliated Organisation ]** Mozilla / Rice University\n**[ Submitter's Github ]** @rabimba\n\n**[ Additional facilitators ]** Avisha Das\n\n\n### What will happen in your session?\nOur identity and all our information are always centralized. Shared with everyone, always. Even when we don't want it. It has become a commodity. Where we don't have any control over how it gets used where and our data becomes fuel for mining our behavior.\n\nWe are proposing a novel way to get back the control in our own hands and build a decentralized identity system which is robust, cannot be corrupted as well as maintains our privacy respecting wishes of those who \"ask\" for our information for verification.\nWe will propose and provide a way to fulfill their promise while not revealing user data all using blockchain along with an architecture that truly is decentralized, resilient and peer to peer.\n\n### What is the goal or outcome of your session?\nTo grow the seed into the minds of the audience how they can use this system right now. To make them aware of the implications and hazards of present security pitfalls. And urge them to think about how this can be evantually be used in global scale.\n\n\n### If your session requires additional materials or electronic equipment, please outline your needs.\nSlides and internet connection\n\n\n### Time needed\n60 mins\n"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/MozillaFoundation/mozfest-program-2017/issues/comments/323363850","html_url":"https://github.com/MozillaFoundation/mozfest-program-2017/issues/549#issuecomment-323363850","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/MozillaFoundation/mozfest-program-2017/issues/549","id":323363850,"user":{"login":"maboa","id":208756,"avatar_url":"https://avatars2.githubusercontent.com/u/208756?v=4","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/maboa","html_url":"https://github.com/maboa","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/maboa/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/maboa/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/maboa/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/maboa/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/maboa/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/maboa/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/maboa/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/maboa/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/maboa/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2017-08-18T14:08:52Z","updated_at":"2017-08-18T14:08:52Z","body":"@rabimba Thanks for submitting this proposal.
