Summary Digital Access & Knowledge Commons Advocates
The RightNow-AI/openfang repository is an open-source software project that instantiates human rights principles through structural design: public accessibility, freedom of expression and association, collaborative governance, and equitable access to technical knowledge. The project demonstrates advocacy for digital equality and the right to participate in scientific/technical advancement through open-source licensing and global accessibility, with minor concerns regarding intellectual property rights conditioned on platform terms and behavioral analytics tracking.
