Whilst i believe the concept of 'data rights' is not technically very
challenging to deliver; particularly in a meaningful way as is offered by
ontological/linked-data methods; the concept therein of 'informed' as may
relate to say, the open-badge spec.   is amongst the opportunities
available for credentials in my opinion.

An alternative viewpoint is that some form of online 'trust'/'trustee' or
'custodianship agreement' pertains; in which it is defined that the server
software shall not be used to breach this form of covenant; nor shall the
services or software provider willing seek to do so.

Data doesn't work well with the concept of 'property rights' nor 'copyright
clause'.  These are global efforts and whilst i find it interesting that
its often led by US companies who are denied the opportunity to review
patents lodged within their system of law; we're left with bit of a mess
for humanity, that's not working for vulnerable people.

"Human Centric" attempts to denote the concept that the people, are more
important than the governors of assembly.  If we don't like them, we can
vote them out.

This is not the case online.  If we don't like facebook - you can't take
your addressbook with you.  If you use a dating app that shows who you've
been close to, or indeed the same functionality for facebook, google or
apple software; that doesn't help domestic violence victims prove their
concerns...

A cashless society isn't great for homeless people or buskers.

These are the sorts of things that are both 'web science' in nature, but by
application - the form and nature of a 'human centric web' in which, we do
not have.
