In which world do we want to live?

How do we want to live?

TB;DPA too boring; didn’t pay attention

Once you’ve covered your basic needs, you can take care of ethical design, because…

…ethical products respect your rights as a human being.

They know that you have other things to do than using an app, and they make it fun for you to use technology.

Ethical Design Framework

  1. Consumption 2. Action

Consumption

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption You have understood your basic human needs.

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption 👼💤🧀💓🤗

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption You have read the Ethical Design Manifesto.

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption Technology respects people.

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption Ethical technology respects… ✅ Human rights Striving and effort Fun during the Experience

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption Ethische Technologie respektiert… ✅ Human rights ✅ Striving and effort Fun during the Experience

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption Ethische Technologie respektiert… ✅ Human rights ✅ Striving and effort ✅ Fun during the Experience

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption Ethical technology works, is intuitive and invisible.

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption It gives you real pleasure and makes you a superhuman.

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption When you use ethical technology, you grin like a „honey cake horse” and your life becomes more beautiful.

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption You understood Surveillance Capitalism.

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption Supervision capitalism is a system in which surveillance and capitalism merge with each other.

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption As a surveilling person, I capture your data and store it in my company’s data centers.

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption When I put the data together, I can create a copy that reflects you, without having to call you my slave. Very easy.

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption This data interests marketers and sellers, because they can tailor their messages to you and then you buy.

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption And because I’ve been collecting data so diligently that it takes a lot of sweat and work, the sellers pay for it and everyone has won…

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption …until your lungs can no longer carry any oxygen into your blood, your kidneys stop producing urine, and your liver cannot keep up to detoxify you.

Ethical Design Framework › Consumption It works like cancer, with uncontrolled growth and rampant growth. When cancer is in top form, there is not much left of the host. But until then everything is fine.

Action

Ethical Design Framework › Action Ethical software alternatives to be found on switching.software.

Ethical Design Framework › Action Do it yourself instead of just consuming

Ethical Design Framework › Action Write code Glitch freeCodeCamp

Ethical Design Framework › Action Write dev.to Neocities own blog

Ethical Design Framework › Action Support Nonprofits / Social Purposes Ind.ie Dat Foundation Code for Science & Society Puri.sm

Ethical Design Framework › Action Talk about it it’s what I’m doing ;)

Two examples

  1. Small Technology Foundation 2. Studiolist

Ethical Design Framework › Action Small Technology Foundation Site.js Better Tincan

Ethical Design Framework › Action Studiolist ethical open-source transparent

Takeaway

  1. Maslow 2. Ethical Design Manifesto 3. „Surveillance Capitalism” 4. Go to switching.software 5. Basics, Basics, Basics, Basics, Basics

Bonus takeaway

Extract parts of Google Services, write the app with your own code and offer it as an ethical product. That’s exactly what I did with Studiolist.

Ende

And if you have not experienced enough love today, you can pick up a hug from your neighbor, or directly from me, as you wish.

And when we’re done with that, we can move from basic human needs to the basic needs of ethical product design. How to do that, we know now.

So… how do we want to live?
