Thanks, Colin!

This blog post (by @wz43rtx.bsky.social and @torgo.com) explains the ethical web document’s journey better.

Hello! Getting document not found on that URL. Looking forward to reading :-)

rgarner.bsky.social•77 days ago

The text link seems to work, the media card doesn't

rgarner.bsky.social•77 days ago

I'm only down to 1.1 but I already <3 the W3C even more

rachelcoldicutt.bsky.social•77 days ago

Aha! Thanks

hadleybeeman.bsky.social•77 days ago

Sorry about that, both — I think I pasted in some of the URL (from which it made the card), realised it was incomplete and deleted/repasted… all without deleting the old card. 🤦‍♀️

Glad you were able to read the doc though — and more glad that (if?) you’re finding it useful!

It's one of those things that I'd almost like to come with a kite mark or a means of indicating that "as the organisation Join Together, we voluntarily subscribe to the applicable parts of this ethos" (I'm particularly keen on 2.2, 2.8, 2.10)

This is a great document (and good blog post). Am very glad to see W3C leading in the very needed area of web ethics and I hope this is picked up widely by the digital community.

Thanks, Simon! Here’s hoping it can be useful. 🤞
