📰 "Europa nie obroni demokracji, działając na amerykańskich serwerach.
Europejska demokracja stoi w obliczu skoordynowanego ataku. Ze Wschodu Putin prowadzi bezprecedensowe kampanie propagandowe, które wpływają na wyniki wyborów i osłabiają większość proukraińską w Radzie Europejskiej. Z Zachodu prezydent Stanów Zjednoczonych Donald Trump grozi wprowadzeniem ceł odwetowych, jeśli Europa będzie egzekwować własne przepisy. Uznaje on opodatkowanie amerykańskich gigantów technologicznych na równi z europejskimi firmami, prawa użytkowników zapisane w ustawie o usługach cyfrowych oraz sankcje konkurencyjne wynikające z ustawy o rynkach cyfrowych za dyskryminację amerykańskich przedsiębiorstw – zasadniczo domagając się od Europy wyrzeczenia się własnych demokratycznych zasad w sferze cyfrowej. Suwerenność Europy stoi pod znakiem zapytania. Dopóki 80 procent europejskich produktów i usług cyfrowych pochodzi ze Stanów Zjednoczonych, szantaż będzie się rozwijał.
Europa potrzebuje teraz niezależnej europejskiej infrastruktury – zwłaszcza rodzimych sieci społecznościowych, które zapewniają równe warunki dostępu do informacji, chronią wolność mediów i gwarantują prawdziwą wolność słowa, w tym prawo do dostępu do faktów, a nie kłamstw i propagandy. Niedawna umowa dotycząca TikToka w Stanach Zjednoczonych, gdzie Trump bawi się pomysłem przekształcenia platformy w narzędzie propagandy MAGA wraz z przyjaznymi inwestorami, powinna wywołać dreszcze w Europie. Zbyt dobrze znamy strategię Orbána. Amerykańskie platformy wzmacniają rosyjską dezinformację i zagłuszają debatę polityczną. Rumunia powtórzyła wybory prezydenckie po tym, jak jej służby specjalne odkryły, że tysiące influencerów otrzymało wynagrodzenie za promowanie nieznanego kandydata. Nawet w okresie poprzedzającym powtórzenie odwołanych wyborów organizacja Global Witness odkryła, że algorytm TikToka dostarczał nowo zarejestrowanym, politycznie zrównoważonym użytkownikom prawie trzy razy więcej treści skrajnie prawicowych"

Hey everyone,
Gaza Verified is now open again for verification calls in 2026.
The new process for signing up for verification calls uses sign in with Mastodon and should remove the last remaining technical hurdle that was giving some of our friends in Gaza a hard time (adding the verification link to your Mastodon account is not intuitive in the current Mastodon interface). With this new flow, you won’t have to, we do it for you.
Also, please remember that Israel, USA, and Germany are continuing their genocide of the Palestinian people with the complicity of the UK and almost the entire rest of the EU.
And we can help, if only a little. And even if it’s just a drop in the ocean it’s still a meaningful drop for those it helps:

Will Mastodon, the platform that keeps the #Fediverse alive, miss a strategic opportunity to bring official institutions on board at scale?
By watching how #EuroSky is being marketed compared to #Mastodon, it certainly seems that way.
I wish the folks at Mastodon would invest in more professional marketing, similar to what we're seeing from its rival, Bluesky.
There was a major meeting in the EU Parliament focused on this topic, yet there was no announcement or microblog post from Mastodon. Zero engagement.
Compare these two approaches:

Wag the Dog, #Venezuela: #Democrats Must Relentlessly Expose #Trump
Rep Seth Moulton & Sen Ruben Gallego are leading the way responding to Trump’s unconstitutional, int #war crimes
But Venezuela, #ICE, #Epstein, tariffs, Trump’s billionaire-fluffing, are all of a piece. So the broader narrative goes like this

Do you know any politicians who are participating in #FOSDEM? I would like to give them my letter and encourage them to #LeaveX: https://leavex.eu/letter
Tomorrow we will have the MEP @alexandrageese joining an interesting panel
The Fediverse and the EU's Digital Services Act: solving the challenges of modern social media?
After the nice presentations of @haubles and @andypiper, I've asked them, "How can a grassroots movement like the Fediverse compete with social networks like BlueSky that have the resources to travel to Brussels every other week?"
I also mentioned the @leavex campaign, which makes it easier for us to contact politicians and ask them to leave X and possibly join us. And how some politicians are already asking to remove their names from the group of politicians still on X.
I'm glad I could meet @_elena again and discuss these issues.
