I hate the "own your data" meme in the decentralized social web. A friend of mine pointed out how useless the phrase is a few years ago and I agree.

The path you go down there is the path to artificial constraints like DRM. Yikes!

We should be talking about user autonomy instead. That's a much better meme.

Tesla's new chairwoman of the board: Robyn Denholm.

Reynholm Industries' founder and head: Denholm Reynholm.

It'll be hard for me not to think of The IT Crowd whenever I'll read something about Tesla's Denholm.
