'Global Square': Wikileaks-Backed Activist Platform Launching in March

anticapitalist:

WikiLeaks Central announced a “Call to Coders” Tuesday as they prepare for the March launch of the “first massive decentralized social network in the history of the Internet.”

“The goal of the Global Square is to perpetuate and spread the creative and cooperative spirit of the occupations and transform this into lasting forms of social organization, at the global as well as the local level. […]

“The aim of the platform, in this respect, should not be to replace the physical assemblies but rather to empower them by providing the online tools for local and (trans)national organization and collaboration. The ideal would be both to foster individual participation and to structure collective action. The Global Square will be our own public space where different groups can come together to organize their local squares and assemblies.”
