1. Towards a digital commons
In this chapter we try to explain why a global digital commons has merit and why it might be a means to move towards a collaborative instead of competitive society.
1. What is a digital commons ?
Source: Wikipedia
The digital commons refers to shared digital resources—such as software, knowledge, data, and cultural content—that are collectively produced and governed by a community and intended for public use.
However, this definition does not do justice to the project since it is mainly focused on software or digital resources but not the physical infrastructure nor devices that the software runs on. Hence, we would like to add to this.
