The protocol-based approach of @bsky.app is maybe a step towards more user control in an online world where there is little of it.

Honored to be part of this global project, led by @fstock.bsky.social, that is asking who should have control over online environments and in what context. 👇

Our findings highlight a clear preference for more individual control in online spaces. This desire for autonomy may help explain the rising popularity of platforms like BlueSky, which prioritize user empowerment.

We looked into individual-level factors: preferences for the different choice architects differ based on individual factors such as trust and risk perception of social media platforms.

Regarding the objective of the choice architecture design (commercial, societal, or personal), people largely oppose online environments being organized for commercial purposes.

We find a clear consensus for more individual regulation, though preferences for governmental or commercial regulation vary by country.
