Speaking at the 2023 Conference of the Plurality Research Network

Ali · February 16, 2023 ·

At the Plurality Research Network Conference 2023, which commenced on January 13, 2022, and continued through January 15, 2023, I delivered a lighting talk the first day.

A Little Introduction to the Conference

Researchers and practitioners from various domains, such as computer science, sociology, political ethics, and government, who are exploring plural technologies are brought together at the Plurality Institute.

Plural technologies are reusable computing platforms that promote collaboration and development across various social communities.

A Brief Overview of My Talk at the Conference

Plurality Research Network Live Conference

During my presentation at the conference, I discussed the issues and difficulties that are associated with digital identifier systems, including the following examples:

  • There is no way for us to influence the assignment of digital Identifiers (private namespaces and globally managed registries).
  • Architectures for phone home or surveillance systems (the OpenID authentication process).
  • There is no standard method for sharing attributes.

I also discussed how different groups, organizations, and political systems handled the management of their own boundaries historically using paper.

After that, dove into Decentralized Identity. I went through the identifiers that don’t fall under the category of private namespaces or global registries. In essence, the protocols of DID (decentralized identifier), together with the standard components of the DID document, as well as Verifiable Credentials. You can se my talk here.

I really enjoyed the other talks given that first day. You can see them all here – if you click on “show more” in the comment each different speaker has their own links.

Identity is Changing: The Rise of Self-Sovereign Identity Infrastructure using Blockchain

Kaliya Young · May 3, 2018 ·

I gave a presentation, “Identity is Changing: The Rise of Self-Sovereign Identity Infrastructure using Blockchain,” at InteroplTX on May 2, 2018.

Identity is Changing at InteroplTX

Identity can seem deceptively simple. We know who we are. Sometimes we have to convince others of that fact and confirm other characteristics: our age, our qualifications, or our right to access some services or tools. This happens every day over the Internet, but in ways that are disorganized, redundant, and risky. The lack of reliable, universal standards puts our private information at risk of public dissemination, fraud or worse.

A new set of standards is emerging that creates an infrastructure for self-sovereign identity that can scale. This talk looks forward to help you think ahead and prepare for this new infrastructure. We will walk through standards that together create a new identity infrastructure that leverages the blockchain. This isn’t about what you can implement tomorrow to solve your employee identity challenges or manage customer accounts. It will instead prepare you for the coming changes and help you play a role in shaping them.

Ethical Market Models in the Personal Data Ecosystem

Kaliya Young · October 1, 2015 ·

This is the presentation I gave at the Grace Hopper Celebration for Women in Computing October 2015. It covers three main ethical market models that could support the emergence of a Personal Data Ecosystem centered on individuals and their personal clouds. The three models are Vendor Relationship Management, Infomediaries, and Data Aggregators. It highlights the need for Accountability Frameworks (also called Trust Frameworks) combinations of code and law/policy. This is contextualized in an overall Landscape picture where two other modes of governance also co-exist – Peer Governance and Identifier Governance.
