Google should strive to be fair as it was ca. 2004 and as its employees and users care to define it in 2024 and going forward.

In which ways could Google be fairer? As per the proposals and ideas above and below. Read on for the positions and proposals that I thought fitting to share in public given my employment and what I think is [[right speech]] and [[right livelihood]].

## Google could be freer
By this I mean not that it should become a non-profit but rather that profits should not get in the way of providing good quality services to people at minimum cost. By this I mean alternatively that Google should adequately compensate the users for their attention.
This might surprise you, but I think Google has been able to stay relatively close to this promise that seems very core to its original mission ([[to organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful]]). Still, we could do better even.

## An Agora is my proposal
The Agora project is my proposal for a platform that improves in some ways on the internet status quo in the fields of knowledge discovery and governance. The Agora is developed as [[free software]] and in the open, with the intent of helping solve problems that ail human groups, corporations and commons as they grow, learn and age together.
The Agora, being a [[commons]], contains a minimum viable governance platform: a space for debate and group decision making coupled with individual exploration.
