Yes, of course; feel free to share if it’s OK with Michele. Also, I think you’d suggested we create a Instagram page in which we show examples of technological dangers. That’s a great idea. ---

Does anyone know if we have any graphic designers in the community? Would be good if we could settle on one visual style for HTC. In any case, through insta and other channels we can always reshare content from other public sources (after checking the content, scrutinizing the source and with reference). A quick google search on your idea of the infographic for cookies led me to this ([source](https://bigdata-madesimple.com/how-to-be-more-anonymous-and-stay-safe-online-infographic/)). Slightly different, but a nice clear guide to improve protection of personal privacy online. ![How-to-be-more-anonymous-online](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/humanetech/original/2X/9/9590ff839af5d43557d330ba8b4b99c226b65166.jpeg) ---

Sure @sidnya, post it on What the Tech! Then I have in mind another infographic too… (about the backend side of all this - algorithms etc. - the invisible harmful design). ---

What do you think about posting this image and inviting people to join our book club? This would make them aware of the solutions side of what we do. ![htc](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex036/uploads/humanetech/original/2X/3/3d36b0bee07e617048ea25650a76a19394227b94.png) ---

I strongly advise to confer with @MaciejBud on this!

Thanks I love it. This is an excellent direction for the community to follow and is remarkably sensible. It’s the missing message, the stream that we would be following if existed. I could see a steam like this becoming virally popular, across many channels, and then sustaining itself even though donations as a public service. Why not the community Instagram channel itself? Though what the tech sounds cool, the name is already taken. Using the Humane Tech Community name itself would bring both brand name recognition and people into the community. Not to mention it sounds official and also like a “community” of real people so would probably get more attention I suppose. ---

Maybe, to keep @aschrijver’s original terminology, we should use the word _campaign._ How about referring to this as the What the Tech campaign? I would like to post something on CHT’s Facebook page and refer to it that way. If I should use _project_ instead, please LMK. ---

I agree with @Free, this should be posted by the official accounts of HTC, otherwise dispersion of channels and sources will be high, people would see multiple accounts and don’t keep in mind the authors of the messages and recognize them as a whole community. ---

Whilst I do agree with concentrating messaging through standard channels, initiatives like should also be applauded. As a campaign, @sidnya could do this as a personal project, right? And then ask for our support in sharing etc. and potentially even providing content. Is there a process / plan for digital media campaigning (incl social) somewhere? Otherwise, should I start a thread for the CT and jot down some of my ideas? ---

The actual plan for a new awareness campaign is the following: - start a new topic here about that - once it gets some feedback and begins to gain some concreteness, start a new campaign on [github](https://github.com/humanetech-community/humanetech-community-awareness) What now lacks is some uniform and centralized organization of the media channels, so that if we want to post a new msg it will spread at the same time and with the same content though all our channels. ---

Regarding dispersion of channels - i.e decentralized vs centralised multi-channel publishing - I have a cool idea - briefly mentioned in Campaigners Inbox and based on my prior topic _“Turning the Weapon Around”]_ - to start a FOSS project for this, that is highly actionable and already has a Githun organization account.

I would highly appreciate if any of you would ping-pong larger changes in terminology and ideas with me, before changing direction**. Maybe track a bullet list + topic refs. There is much to offload from my head still. ---

To me the message of What the Tech is the same as the Humane Tech Community. And also I saw that the Humane Tech Community Instagram has no posts. ---

I think that the few people on the main core team should have the login credentials to the social media channels and other online accounts. That way it is a sign of trust and of collaboration. It’s important for these kinds of things to be a true team effort. It’s important to have a core team set, with 3-5 people who can agree on actions and also take into consideration the voices of the rest of the community. I would also expect diverse people on the core team all the way to the top to counterbalance the over-represented techie stereotype, due to different types of strengths and weaknesses that each person can bring. I think it’s ok to discuss this in the open here. I don’t consider myself a candidate for the core team.
