Functionland is a team of 10+ strong and growing. We are incorporated in Toronto, Canada🍁 Our leadership team is scattered across the globe. We have been fortunate to have the backing of the Outlier Ventures Family. @jamie247 anyone! ? A thread 👇🧵
We are establishing an Association in Switzerland with the help of a great Canadian-Swiss-UK legal team. This association and current structure lay the groundwork for a DAO. Yes, yes, but what is Functionland building, what's on the roadmap🗺?
Why should you be paying attention to Functionland? Our organization is built upon first principles. We asked - how can all citizens be participants in #Web3 . How can non-technical people jump on board and start using dApps? How do we truly decentralize the decentralized web🌎
1/3 The true threat for true digital property rights #NFTs #ownyourdata will not come from regulation or government but from big tech companies unwilling to surrender their data hegemony and wrestling for control of their definition of the #Metaverse
2/3 Part of the reason why .@animocabrands has such an aggressive investing strategy (inc. building our own stuff @TheSandboxGame @REVV_Token and others) is to support the growth of an open metaverse to a point that it becomes unassailable and true interoperability is a given 
3/3 #NFTs have the potential to transform #digitalassets and #dataownership in the same way that #opensource has transformed our relationship with code #closedsource with new layers added on top of #opendigitalasset to give rise to entirely new experiences that may accrue value

And... it looks like the livestream is off the air. Anyone else have that happen?
Okay, it's back online! I missed the first ten minutes but it's back online. @butterbob owes me a recording tomorrow morning.

So... a while back I tweeted about a bit of functionality I've long thought would be a cool one to have for Twitter:
I would often see people post tweetstorms, long threads of related tweets, to tell an extended story.
Invariably people see these threads and say "Why don't/didn't you just post that on your website as a blog post instead?"
(In fact, why don't you try it on this very tweet?)

The App has the Permission:
AccessWifiState
It's excusable for Apps having a Setting for "Only do X if connected to Wi-Fi"
I don't know if it has such a Setting. If not, it is usually used to collect Wi-Fi's around you, for more location data

I watched the @thegreathackdoc on @netflix last night, and of course had to hit Google to find out where all the bad guys were at today. Here's what I found:

@thegreathackdoc @netflix @chrisinsilico Alexander Nix: Article from July 24th
He cancelled a speech he was to give at Cannes in June, because they were screening The Great Hack. This was to be his first public speech since the scandal erupted last year. Sheryl Sandberg was attending as well🙄

@thegreathackdoc @netflix @chrisinsilico After the @Channel4News undercover video, Nix was suspended, CA was shut down, and ultimately filed for bankruptcy.
Nix insisted that CA had never worked on an election in the UK, but Brittany Kaiser said in the doc that this wasn’t true. According to her, they were never

Just got my course feedback. My students hated my online classes They really wanted me on Blackboard, I wish they knew how much of their data got sucked up. More importantly I want them to understand why they need to #ownyourdata #digped
This is such an importance #literacies lesson, such an important skill for educators to model. We have to #teachtheweb just as much as any "Big Five" they are missing this take away. It is essential to our civil society
And I thought I really nailed the navigation. I removed a third party chat app, removed an annotation app, got it down to just two websites, theirs and mine
