Daily data breaches compromise medical records, putting lives at risk, financial records are disclosed, leading to theft, and personal secrets can be exposed without consent. In a world where data is a valuable asset, it is essential to create a fair and secure environment. Contextual integrity, which addresses data privacy in the digital age, must be upheld to protect individual rights and foster trust in digital interactions. Our goals include: -*Creating a robust, secure, and user-friendly peer-to-peer protocol for data access control. -*Providing tools and resources to enable builders to develop Self Sovereign Apps, where users can manage their data independently. -*Target developers to raise awareness, join the movement, and build products within this new framework. -*Educating the public about the importance of data sovereignty and how to protect their digital identity. -*Developing user economy models, for the users to be compensated when their data is used by profit-making entities. + +◦ Creating a robust, secure, and user-friendly peer-to-peer protocol for data access control. + +◦ Providing tools and resources to enable builders to develop Self Sovereign Apps, where users can manage their data independently. + +◦ Target developers to raise awareness, join the movement, and build products within this new framework. + +◦ Educating the public about the importance of data sovereignty and how to protect their digital identity. + +◦ Developing user economy models, for the users to be compensated when their data is used by profit-making entities. ## Join the Movement
