Own Your Stuff
Our calls to action:
 * own your identity
 * own your data, your content
 * own your everything online

Focus
https://indieweb.org/
 * Your content is yours
 * You are better connected
 * You are in control

But really all of that starts with one goal: self-empowerment

And broadens to: spread empowerment

We are not just a set of individuals, we are a community
 * work to empower ourselves
 * collaborate to empower each other
 * share to empower beyond those we know

Principles are all in support of that.
