Muslim contribution to FOSS in a period where there is no anchor state and the need is some degree of independence from GAE and CCP (unavoidable to ignore entirely though) splinternts is the fix here.
Building on already excellent protocols the key - Notesnook an example of Muslim excellence in encrypted notetaking that has become universalist. It is a good product because it is excellent not because it is "Islamic", banking on affinity scamming
SAIF has been spreading the need for FOSS development not just as a technical challenge but one of cultural formation and attitudes. We must reconfigure the everyday cultural relationship Muslims have with Big Tech and in doing so we will find like minded allies
Data is spice - taking this one step further - data and money are increasingly becoming one and the same thing. Important to engage culturally and technically with BTC but also XMR to a lesser extent and avoid the rest of GAE crypto
