My high level intention is the following: to develop, together, a [[commons]] containing a prosocial transparent governance layer for the internet and use it in a daring way to try to advance company, society and civilization. I intend to convince Google that this is the right thing for both people ("users") and company; and I intend to convince you, reader, that we should do this together.

The [[Agora]], in short, is what I call my umbrella proposal, presented as a [[prototype]], to help fix Google and similar systems. That is, I make the argument that the project I started personally and then developed as an informal 120% since around 2020 (see [[Agora project]]), represents a step forward in a good direction as we navigate the mid 20s together. You, [[dear reader]], will be the judge of these claims. The [[Agora]], in short, is what I call my umbrella proposal, presented as a [[prototype]], to help fix Google and similar systems.
