&lt;p&gt;I work in a startup town, the rare kind of place where you can trip over veteran founders, with multiple exits behind then, on the sidewalk. By “exits,” I mean the end-goal of most tech-oriented startups—the moment when the startup is sold, either to a bigger company or, more rarely, to the investing public on the stock market. The whole culture of startup communities like Boulder is aimed toward this; it’s when founders and investors get their big payday. And yet this is the logic that turns our online infrastrutures into commodities. In the exit, it is often the data and loyalty of us the users that is being sold to the highest bidder.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I am currently engaged in research on the feasibility of such models, with the support of a fellowship from Rutgers University’s &lt;a href=&quot;https://smlr.rutgers.edu/content/institute-study-employee-ownership-and-profit-sharing&quot;&gt;Institute for the Study of Employee Ownership and Profit-Sharing&lt;/a&gt;. The first step is a paper with &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.universiteitleiden.nl/en/staffmembers/1/morshed-mannan&quot;&gt;Morshed Mannan&lt;/a&gt;, a brilliant thinker on legal strategies for a more democratic online economy. We’re exploring what conditions would work best for this kind if exit, as well as the policies needed to make it more feasible.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;/medlab/assets/fetters-wave.jpg&quot; style=&quot;float:right; width:50%; padding:10px;&quot; /&gt;Those of us looking to shape our enterprises with methods for collective governance and shared ownership are led to ask: &lt;em&gt;What can collective governance look like? What shape does that take? What are some of the challenges and freedoms presented in this model?&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
