    Ask HN: What are we doing about Facebook, Google, and the closed internet?

    Aaron Parecki
    I am a member of the W3C Social Web Working Group (https://www.w3.org/wiki/Socialwg), and have been organizing IndieWebCamp (https://indieweb.org/) conferences in this space for the last 7 years. We've been making a lot of progress:

    • https://www.w3.org/TR/webmention/ - cross-site commenting
    • https://www.w3.org/TR/micropub/ - API for apps to create posts on various servers
    • https://www.w3.org/TR/websub/ - realtime subscriptions to feeds
    • More: https://indieweb.org/specs

    We focus on making sure there are a plurality of implementations and approaches rather than trying to build a single software solution to solve everything.

Hi, I'm Aaron Parecki, Director of Identity Standards at Okta, and co-founder of IndieWebCamp. I maintain oauth.net, write and consult about OAuth, and participate in the OAuth Working Group at the IETF. I also help people learn about video production and livestreaming. (detailed bio)

I've been tracking my location since 2008 and I wrote 100 songs in 100 days. I've spoken at conferences around the world about owning your data, OAuth, quantified self, and explained why R is a vowel. Read more.
