Anyone with a passing knowledge of the cypherpunk (cryptocurrency) community in the early days can appreciate that one of their main contributions was to preemptively mitigate the risk of those technologies falling into one set of wrong hands by decentralizing their efforts and making them open source from the beginning.
Also, anyone with a passing knowledge of the progress being made in brain computer interfaces (BCI's) can apreciate that to avoid a dystopic worldwide society, the progress in this field must be decentralized, open sourced and with a very strong focus on limitation and attenuation mechanisms for the capacities of these systems. Don't think so? Go downlowad the Oxford Handbook of Hypnosis, read it, think about what someone can do with that knowledge and perfected invasive BCI's and come back when you have stopped crying.
So, I am looking for any community of people in this field contributing in their own pace, my faith in humanity tells me there must be something like that already: a bunch of serious researchers bouncing around their wildest ideas and personal projects.
I haven't been able to find something like that, and I dread the inmense responsibility to create it from the beginning if necessary. However if I find that there is no such thing up until now, I will.
I would apreciate a discussion and anyone pointing me in the right direction in my search.
