Being open to receiving a request from someone you don't know personally is necessary work. Helping to find certified productive options for the individual making the request is the work that mate3 networkers do. Original mate3 networking is supported by subscribers, sponsors and stakeholders. For years we noticed that the connections for an individual to be heard and supported directly were only sparsely available. After 10+ years of being accessible 24/7, mate3 networkers are still distributing phone numbers, emails and promoting ways for individuals to contact us for advocacy help. Mate3 networkers put ourselves on the hook to deliver the advocacy support that we lay out in our defined benefits and services. Earlier this year we decided that when someone reaches out for help, they deserve to be heard and not redirected, dismissed, or put on hold. So, we decided to start a new non-profit that will be able to do much of what original mate3 has already been doing, but without a...

An enforced bill of rights for firsthand answers in the age of AI will exponentially impact both human rights and civil rights. Have you ever considered what happens to the answers you give to clarify and to help solve problems? The chain of custody and policies for handling first-party answers is vital to organizing, advocacy, and solving problems. The legal system must play a more defined role in protecting incoming firsthand answers because the answers could very well be the answers that bring closure, awareness, and maybe a solution. Biased handling of incoming firsthand answers has a history of damaging the trust and expectancy of the individuals that have reached out or spoke up. It is our experience that part of aligning people who are new or who have justified distrust in groups is to add transparency, remove barriers and increase the incentives. Voluntary compliance and legal enforcement have both worked good together. The law has always known that firsthand answers matter...

Mate3 is in the fourth phase of being a broker, collaborator, and representative for authorized firsthand answers. Mate3 is the largest pipeline for shipping formatted individual answer sets about what happened. This pipeline supplies subscribers, stakeholders, advocates, problem solvers, and AI agents. In 2025 mate3 networkers opened access to their chatbot to assist new users and interested ones.   The networkers cited the shortcomings of organizing around general data as compared to organizing around incoming firsthand answers about what happened. In 2014 mate3 was founded to develop policies for and improve advocacy for affected individuals. Scalability of advocacy was a first consideration because scaling is necessary for engagement. The mate3 nomenclature is for guiding policy-based advocacy solutions through expanded searches to find certified productive responses to what individuals say happened to themselves. Mate3 networking is a service that helps individuals be hear...

The problem of fake advocates is growing fast, especially in healthcare. Rental housing operators were early entrants into crafting advocacy for their tenants. In the 1960’s it was known as pre-canned and sell-out advocacy. My first up close look at how fake advocates work was in New York city. In this case the landlord brought in a friend to start a tenant’s association that would ultimately be controlled by the landlord. For 38 years every call for direct action, class action and redress was met with impediments inserted by the landlord’s friend in the tenant’s association. Next, I would see political lobbyists using the same tactic of offering victims and potential victims pre-canned advocacy without using their firsthand answers. Consider the innocent individuals that go to these unvetted advocates seeking help. That interaction has disengaged and underserved individuals seeking advocacy as far back as I can remember. What we see today is a result of accumulated apathy as a direc...
