Be Part Of A New Era Of Social Media
Our world is shaped by the influence of big tech, and Mark Zuckerberg’s decision this week to overturn independent fact-checking and moderation on his platforms is a profoundly damaging step for individuals and society.
While cloaked in the disguise of “freedom,” this move serves only to fuel the control and division that mainstream social platforms have wielded to dominate and monetize us all, transforming billions of people into the largest unpaid workforce in human history with every scroll and post.
Rather than empowering the masses, Zuckerberg is suppressing diverse voices, elevating a select few, and deepening divides by dictating what we see and how we feel. He has openly admitted this shift will bring “more toxic content to the platform,” further weaponizing algorithms to drive profits at the expense of our collective well-being. And perhaps most insidiously, this decision is being sold to us under the guise of free speech.
The founder of a burgeoning social media app has pledged to help users end the “abusive relationship” existing platforms hold their users in, as it announced a new tech deal to aid its growth.
WeAre8, an emerging social media platform which pledges to give people control over their data, has been backed by a US billionaire as part of efforts to shake up the social network market.
American billionaire businessman Frank McCourt’s Project Liberty has announced a new collaboration with the site and will use its blockchain technology with the aim of decentralising social media so that users on the platform are completely in control of their data.
Zoe Kalar, the app’s founder, told the PA news agency that the public had been in an “abusive relationship” with social media platforms for the last 15 years with user data and advertising earnings controlled by the tech firms, but claimed WeAre8 was changing this, particularly through its new link-up with Project Liberty.

Founder: Zoe Kalar
Zoe Kalar (formerly known as Sue Fennessy) is a serial tech entrepreneur who has spent 35 years building four transformational companies.
At WeAre8, she is transforming social media by eliminating anonymity and hate, transforming social media in a way that inspires and mobilizes hundreds of millions of people to make positive change in the world. WeAre8’s social technology and centralized wallet has restructured the capital flows, so that the money from advertisers is shared with people, publishers, non-profits and planet projects rather than into the pockets of a few social tech giants.
Having built the world’s first Generative AI media buying engine, Zoe is not just on a mission to transform advertising and social media in a way that eliminates toxicity, but to unite people at scale in a way that can transform the trajectory of lives across the world – like ending the water crisis and transforming children’s access to education.
“By redirecting the power of big tech back into the hands of the people we change everything. With just 4% of the world, 320 Million people, standing together on WeAre8, we can fund and build 400 desalination plants together in one year. We can get free data and phones into the hands of 500 million children in India who could then access entertaining, educational content.”
‘Everything is possible’ is Zoe’s mantra. “We just had to re-architect social media and the advertising capital flows so that the money flows through to people rather than stopping with big tech. Our sharing model works better for everyone – and changes the world in the process.”
“When changing the world is cool, easy, quick and fun, and helps you pay your bills at the same time, there is not a person on the planet that won’t want to be part of that.”
Having lived in Shanghai, Singapore, NY and London for the last 25 years, Zoe is an Australian woman on a mission to use technology and creativity to elevate humanity and help solve the biggest problems in the world.
