“Democracy”

Konstantin Macher@pneutig@eupolicy.social

Heise reports on the unprecedented move to vote again on the #ChatControl 1.0 law that the European Parliament already rejected:

„The draft is to be put on Parliament's agenda as early as Tuesday as part of an urgent procedure – immediately before the start of the summer break. Should the plenary session approve the accelerated procedure, a vote threatens on the last day of session before the holidays, when many MEPs have historically already departed.“

Needless to say, do not sign up for W or give them your ID information no matter how simple they eventually manage to make it.

You simply don’t need to.

You’re already in a far superior – non-corporate, federated – space.

Do not sign up for W. And warn your friends.

The only time you have any power to stop this is now. If they succeed in gaining network effects, you will be as powerless to stop them as you are with X.

And yes, they’re just another venture capital funded surveillance capitalist, people farmer, and burgeoning Nazi Bar. They just happen to be based in the EU. (As Nazi Bars traditionally have been.)

Ursula von der Leyen’z post wishing a “warm welcome to all folllwers on W” and calling it user friendly, open source, privacy preserving and “humans only/no bots”. Oh and “European” (unlike Mastodon, which I guess was made on Mars).
