Bridging the U.S. Digital Divide - Fairly
|
In October 2022, Digital Planet filed ex-parte with the Federal Communications Commission, urging them to scrutinize not only the number of locations that are served but how many individuals are connected to broadband. On December 8th 2022, the Digital Planet team spoke at Next Century Cities' Broadband Data webinar, elaborating on our “people over miles” approach to bridge the digital divide in the US.

I'VE BEEN WORKING ON
|
I've been working on the Digital Pulse initiative and analyzing misinformation and disinformation trends on social media.
|
AN INSIGHT I DISCOVERED
|
The maze of misinformation is extremely complex, and toxic narratives are increasing by the day. There is no one straight way out of it and a joint effort between user responsibility, content moderation by platforms, international cooperation and responsible governance is important to find the way out.

I'M PASSIONATE ABOUT
|
Exploring different ways in which technology can bridge economic and social gaps.
