Why open data sets? And why curated data, in a rough way. The legacy media became propaganda, in fact all sponsored content became in some way compromised. Elon musk is fighting hard to not get X censored and some countries do not have musk to defend them since they have their own X headquarters and decsion makers. That is just the tip of the iceberg. Where do you get your information? Real information. Not just soundbites and snippets and headlines. Is this democratic? What does democracy mean if we do not have the fourth state, independent media? How can citizens actively participate in their own society, if there is no objective informed consent possible? We can not depend on algorithms to "feed" us information. We can not depend on manufactured news tv stories of propaganda. We can not depend on heavily censored mega platforms. Which brings us back to the good old investigative journalism. The art of of actually doing research. Which is with all these recent limitations even harder to do. And the ones that do, give up their comfort zone, their freedom and sometimes even their lives to get out the truth. So who do you trust? Humans that go to exceptional lenghts to get out the truth? Or robots programmed by whoknowswho to serve whatever agenda? At [citizen.chat](http://citizen.chat) we have it very clear. The future of data is human curated. ## And open, human curated data could be the source of informed consent and therefore democracy.
