DOES GOVERNMENT HELP OR GET IN THE WAY OF SOLUTIONS?

If people don’t weigh in and set the agenda for government, who sets the agenda?

 OWN YOUR GOVERNMENT IS A WAY PEOPLE CAN SET THE AGENDA

COMMUNITY RESOURCES ARE PUBLIC POWER

Global problems are solved in communities.

MEETING BASIC HUMAN NEEDS

Individual opportunity in livable communities is the path to global sustainable civilization. Communities need a structure that supports their accesss to talent resources with gateways into global markets.

PRESERVATION OF TRADITIONAL VALUES AND CULTURE

Own Your Government may be the most important US export. It provides a platform that conforms to local  customs, while offering funding and technological support for healthcare, industry, communication and emergency response.

OYG IS TRANSFORMATIONAL

COMMUNITY-OWNED FINANCIAL RESOURCES

Wealth and  power are related. We can do little about climate sensitivity of places where we live. Sometimes, we can only prepare for rain, cold, heat, flood, drought, etc. But we need resources. We need money, materials and technology, whether to plant crops, write code, rebuild homes or build our towns on safe higher ground.

OYG platforms create the access to money and resources we need and allow us to take advantage of our collective wealth and power.

 

A COMMUNITY CAN USE AN OYG PLATFORM AS ITS FINANCIAL INFRASTRUCTURE

COMMUNITY-OWNED

An OYG supported community is a self-identifying geographic part of a city, region, state or nation. Residents log into a community's OYG platform with a smart phone or browser. Neighborhood OYG affiliates may provide cost-free smartphones or tablets.

Security


A community's OYG platform exists as encrypted data in redundant servers, with strong privacy protection of personal information, voting data and outcome of polls, using security procedures equal to financial institutions.

VERIFIED CONSENSUS

Every registered member on a community platform may post a poll to the community. When responses to the poll reach a statistically relevant threshhold, consensus is reported to media, and government officials.

OYG DATA

Backend technologies

Privacy and Blockchain

We use Blockchain to protect identities and ensure the integrity of poll results, digitally-signed documents, chat history and video recordings from theft, corruption, ransomware, and loss. Historical data and legal documents are protected with bank-level encryption and a tamper-proof checksum hash.

NLP

We use NLP to parse poll questions and apply semantic similarity to find similar issues being polled in other communities to derive broader consensus on import issues. We use AI on chat posts and comments to detect offensive or vulgar language, and attributes such as tension, anger, ad hominem speech, as well as non-factual assertions.

Decentralized Architecture

Each community runs on its own server node or “instance” with inter-regional data redundancy. This allows our platform to redeploy the instance quickly and automatically in another data center, if the original node goes down due to network latency, regional downtime, data corruption or a network attack.
