The main issue I see with the Digital Service Act is that it is mainly a cashgrep for lawyers. I already see customers trying to rule lawyer it to the point where they don't need to change anything

(It's actually surprising how much energy they put into this. If they'd only invest a fraction of that energy in actually addressing the issues everyone would be better off, them included...)

Too much talking, not enough action. Politicians, leave X now.

For the European Commission, such toots are like a thermometer stuck up the European's bum.

I hope they listen.

Musk's X office in France raided by Paris prosecutor

yes, that is good.

We would all, also appreciate it, if the EU Commission decides to protect our privacy as per EU Charter and moves against Chat Control.

Protecting children and privacy shouldn't happen at the expense of the other.

We can understand that article 52 states : “Subject to the principle of proportionality, limitations may be made only if they are necessary and genuinely meet objectives of
general interest recognised by the Union or the need to protect the rights and freedoms of others.”

Infringing on the rights of people to protect children may seem commendable (?) but the objectives of protecting the rights and freedoms of children are not met by these measures either.

Unfortunately, the rights of children are also at risk because age assurance measures are left up to third parties that misuse this data. It only takes a single misuse incident for such data to be online forever, both for children and adults, who then fall prey to AI exploitation.

Exploitation such as, undressing via dedicated AI models all the way to biometric surveillance. We can't allow people to live in fear of exploitation, as we have seen in America (ICE) where such data is indeed being misused to target individuals and often so by racial discrimination.

Just. Stop. Mass surveillance.

Bye Big Tech! Hello FOSS!

Btw, it would be kinda awesome if the EU could find some Euros tucked away somewhere and sponsor (EU-hosted) Fediverse instances 😉

For the EU it's a small amount but for the Fedi it could be evolutionary

Not really.

You censor and supress anti genocide voices

"Your data. Your feed. Your control."

So you're ditching your Digital Omnibus project to make our data, our feeds, a free for all for the training of large language models (which will deprive us of our control)?
