Control Zed Project

It's no secret that globalisation has undermined the soul and cultural fabric of people all around the world. It affects almost everyone who doesn't live in the United States.

Those who call the last letter of the alphabet Zed and not Zee have been often involuntarily bundled in with the "American way" of doing things.

We want none of it.

• United States at the top of the alphabetical Country dropdown?
• British, Irish, Aussie and Kiwi businesses with "American English" as the business's language?
• Braindead Hollywood celebrities being drilled into our eyes all day, every day?

And when it comes to aggressive and disruptive things the US government and influential American businessmen do, the list is increasingly long and well-known.

Yet as we live with an increasingly dystopian American vision of the future, workplaces treat the mere recognition of this fact as some kind of thoughtcrime. A seriously selective approach to free speech…

Technology - and the internet - has accelerated this cultural backsliding… but it also holds the keys to breaking the cycle.

Instead of a defeatist mentality - silent complicity and muttering there's nothing we can do - we will use the powerful tools available to us.

The Control Zed Project is a project that seeks to use technology to cancel out (and potentially even reverse) many of the consequences of the American technological, commercial and cultural influence.

Future Project Ideas...

• Fixing rigged recommendation algorithms that seem to favour American:
  • content creators
  • products and brands
  • search results
• Providing (community-driven) notes when you are on a vested interest pro-US bias
• Auto-filling AI initial prompt with a template (e.g. to tell it to respond in your dialect or with metric etc)
• Settings to opt-out of parts of American culture and the news cycle that you're just not interested in (e.g. NFL, Awards ceremonies, US politics)
• Providing inline context about brands and companies to indicate where the company's owners are from
• Creating an alternative to Google Translate and DeepL which provides full support for English dialects
• Android Keyboard with better English dialect and locale support (i.e. better autocomplete and a localised GIF selector - no dead US talk-show memes in sight)

This project is entirely independent. It is anti-US influence of all kinds, but is otherwise apolitical. Who are we?
