Commercial imperatives of the modern internet consistently undermine factual accuracy and prioritize engagement over the public good. 

We explore the urgent need for a civic digital domain. We discuss how to establish governance frameworks that protect users rather than exploiting their personal data, using the clean water analogy to differentiate trusted information from commercial noise.

We are joined by Tony Ageh, Executive Director of dotPublic and adjunct assistant professor at Trinity College Dublin, Jake Berger, Programme Director at dotPublic, and Professor Dave Lewis, Professor in Computer Science at Trinity College Dublin, to discuss why building a trustworthy digital infrastructure is a necessity.
