P3 - Porous Pareto Partition

P3 - Porous Pareto Partition Datta, Shoumen Unsustainable and Misaligned Economics of Technology triggers a Porous Pareto Partition Between the Haves and the Have Nots: Can Democratization of Distributed Data act as a Catalyst for the Dissemination of Digital Dividends? This essay aspires to inform that tools and data related to the affluent world are not a template to be “copied” or applied to systems in the remaining (80%) parts of the world which is under economic constraints. We need different thinking that resists the inclination of the affluent 20% of the world to treat the rest of the world (80% of the population) just as a market. The 80/20 distribution evokes the Pareto theme in this essay.
