There are many good reasons to join the ask23! community …

… which up to now has been visited by at least 5,000 users per month …

Membership at ask23! means engaging in a unique artistic/scientific information pool and a high-performance research tool. Your contribution will allow the continuation of an ad-free and purely content-oriented research resource, which is independent from commercial interests, and where your personal data will not be disclosed to third parties. Furthermore, based on its underlying concept and orientation, ask23! is not operated for profit. Possible surpluses will always be reinvested in the expansion of ask23!.

 

Should we surrender the further development of our entire culture, all of our knowledge and preferences, to the commercialized selection mechanisms governed by Google & Co.?
