The Netherlands and Spain push for an EU-wide minimum age on social media.

The European Commission is expected to announce a social media ban for minors next week.

The Netherlands and Spain want it harmonised, EU-enforced, and extended to video games and AI chatbots.

I wonder about your priorities? On one hand, you criticize wsocial's privacy violating practices, on the other hand, you publish this kind of free advertisement for Apple, a privacy invading #US #BigTech with a gated hard and SW ecosystem.

I know, they have great devices, but maybe have a look into admittedly technically not as impressive but open devices from #EU based providers such as Fairphone or Shiftphone with e.g. /e/ or iode OS.


En weer een stap richting een internet waarop we ons steeds vaker moeten identificeren, uiteraard onder het mom van “kinderen beschermen”.

Kinderen beschermen: absoluut. Maar verplichte leeftijdsverificatie voor sociale media brengt ook serieuze risico’s mee voor privacy en anonimiteit.

Vandaag voor kinderen, maar waar ligt morgen de grens?

What we in the #EU need: to learn from #Ukraine.

What we in the EU can offer Ukraine: Great defence tech. And scale – continental scale.

Our goal: to build European drone capacity together.

Die EU geht schon jetzt mit Rüstungsgütern gegen Flüchtende an den europäischen Außengrenzen vor. Daher ist der Qualitäts- und Quantitätssprung mit der Siegesmund-Aussage nicht gerade groß. Die Handlungsoption wird nur weiter nach innen verlagert.

Auf einmal bricht dann Deutschland bzw. Sachsen-Anhalt verbriefte Menschenrechte wie das humanitäre Völkerrecht auch im Inland. Huch.

Wer sich über den Siegesmund-Satz aufregt sollte sich mal die Frontex-Praxis genauer anschauen.

Es kann doch nicht sein, das nur das ale Verbrechen gegen Flüchtende zählt was innerhalb der deutschen Grenzen geschieht bzw. geschehen soll!

Aber wem sag ich das....

Es war der USB-Stecker und Ersatzteile hier sind auch nur Importe + "Importeursteuer" von 600%

Das ist die Leistung zu der diese Nation noch fähig ist, mehr nicht ...

Sie rauben den Ärmsten und Rentnern sogar die Luft zum Atmen, diese neoliberalen Drecksschweine im Amt.

Wahrscheinlich damit deren Brut sich bereichern kann ...

The Afd has thanked Elon Musk for his support in the campaign that led to their victory in Saxony-Anhalt.

Elon Musk's Tesla is maybe the greatest responsible for the crisis in the German automotive industry, which has led to the dismissal of thousands of workers, raising the unemployement rate in Germany.

Logics should be a compulsory subject for all secondary stage students.

Here’s what The Counteroffensive is reading today:

The #EU will allow #Ukraine to spend EU #loan money on #Patriot components.

As some deliveries will take years to arrive, Ukraine has asked allies to transfer existing stockpiles in exchange for future Ukrainian #weapons.

I wanted to indeed find out more about the #AffordableHousingAct and followed the Link.

It's .. complicated.

First of all "housing" still isn't "a right" as in "you can sue if it is denied to you".

On the other hand DOES the #EU seem to be willing (after decades) to repair some of their biggest policy flaws, meaning that it was forbidden to intervene in (dysfunctional) housing markets.

I'd give it a 5 out of 10.

A step in the right direction at least.

👍


Housing is a right, not a privilege.

Yet, affordable housing is a major concern for citizens across Europe, especially in cities and popular tourist destinations.

With our Affordable Housing Act, we're providing national, regional and local authorities with the tools and legal certainty they need to assess housing availability and affordability where the pressure is greatest, and to determine the appropriate next steps.

it's so rare in fact that in 2003 banks in Germany stopped issuing chequebooks and by 2008 all issued ones had lapsed.

  • Because by that point even pre-#SEPA - #EU was well interconnected enough that noone bothered to write actual cheques when #WireTransfer was always faster, cheaper, more convenient and less hassle…

To me #Banking in the #USA seems worse than Somalia!


Vielen Menschen, die nicht "handeln" ist es leider nicht bewusst, was dieses Bürokratiemonster für Händler:innen bedeutet; Das betrifft nicht nur Selbstständige, die etwas einkaufen und weiter verkaufen, sondern auch Kreative, die ihre Produkte innerhalb der #EU verkaufen wollen. Für sie ist es faktisch nicht mehr möglich (zumindest nicht wirtschaftlich sinnvoll). Alleine große Anbieter wie #amazon #otto etc. können das stemmen faz.net/aktuell/wirtschaft/meh…




Finland completes the construction of 200km fencing along its border with Russia.

Work on the fencing along Finland’s 1340-kilometre-long border with Russia began just over three years ago.

Finland’s border with Russia is the longest frontier shared by any EU or Nato member nation with Russia.

The West’s support of Israel’s ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people tells you everything you need to know about “Western values”.

Western values are dollars, euros, and cents.

The next time some white person from Europe or the US preaches to you about their values, laugh in their faces. Loudly. Make sure everyone around you hears what a sick joke they are.

Our most-shared post today was about this alarming exchange.

It captures one of the main reasons we created #LeaveX: to protect democracy from political manipulation and disinformation promoted by tech billionaires through platforms they control.

This is not only about the US. The attack on democracy is global, and the tech oligarchs are gaining ground.

How can we bring democrats together and turn concern into *effective action*?

approach is a crucial step and directly addresses today's greatest needs. Today's youth are the first generation to grow up entirely connected to social media. Although the digital world offers connection and community, the algorithmic design of many platforms fuels toxic social comparison, cyberbullying, digital dependency, etc.

Chapter 4 of Disinfonomics: The Market of Lies.

Manipulation spreads through participation — sharing, signalling, belonging. The counter has to work the same way: give people something to *do*. This week, the simplest version of that — a button.

“The same European leaders demanding solidarity against Russia are silent on Palestine. The same governments sanctioning Moscow continue to trade with and diplomatically protect Tel Aviv, and people can see this. The selective application of outrage and principle is visible to anyone willing to look, and more and more people are looking”

quoting Deaglan O’Mulrooney in “EU leaders are struggling as nobody in Europe buys the Russia scare stories anymore” in the spectacle on Substack
