Krowdthink Ltd was founded by Geoff Revill and Jacob Baytelman. Two guys with a desire to change the way social platforms
deliver value in a mobile age - starting with complete respect for peoples right to engage online without location tracking or personal profiling.
Who I am belongs to me, to share with whom I decide, when, how and where I decide.
It's time social platforms become a service to the customer and user. The Internet is still in its infancy, the consequences of the way in which current social networks operate have profound effects on society and even world order. The pursuit of big data in a cyber world that we already know cannot be fully secured, nor safely anonymised, puts the user at risk. Social platforms are the worst risk and have become the least trusted because they seek to keep your data forever!
No online system will keep your data secure or private forever.
Hence a core principle of our trust model is to make data minimisation the point of innovation.
store the least possible;
retain it for the shortest time possible;
transmit the least possible;
where possible distribute the remaining data to the individuals personal control on their device.
Governments continuously struggle to hold social platform providers accountable, especially across international boundaries.
Our rights are protected only in retrospect, after the damage is done, if at all.
Only companies that decide to make your privacy their business can offer a real alternative to the current status quo.
This is why Krowdthink is a founding member of https://mydata.org
campaigning for a human-centric Internet and building products that adhere to these core values.
Additionally we support these organizations with our time or by following their principled guidance.
