Today in conversation with Thomas Barlow founder of #Bywire news network. Thomas Barlow has been at the center of some of the most exciting developments in the #independentnews sector and has knowledge on ALL things #UKmedia - including the big guns.
He has also been a festival founder, club night promoter, anarchist, activist, journalist and gig economy worker.
Bywire.news is a #decentralised news network that stores all content on the #blockchain. Bywire also offers #tokenincentive rewards, and even offers a Universal Basic Income to all publishers, putting power back in the hands of the publishers. The network is the home of independent news and sits logically as the alternative news app to Google and Apple News. As an organisation we are working closely with the Independent Media Association, formerly known as The Media Fund, helping to develop a united front of UK #alternative media. What's more, Bywire is totally democratically managed! No more deplatforming without recourse. No more #censorship without real democratic values and processes.
We chat about the rise of #independentmedia and how to #tackle #fakenews with intelligent #journalism which is funded #bythepeople!
