RE: nuke@poliversity.it È possibile essere più fascisti di Vannacci? Popolari e parte dei socialisti europei ci sono riusciti. La democrazia dell'Unione europea è, peraltro, una democrazia finta, con un parlamento che si chiama parlamento ma non ha potere di iniziativa legislativa.

RE: Tutanota@mastodon.social #ChatControl 1.0 è passata in Europa 🥵 Traduciamo il post di Tuta: «ChatControl è passata nonostante una maggioranza contraria (314 contro 276). Il parlamento europeo l'ha rigettata due volte nel passato ed è stata avanzata come procedura urgente per un nuovo voto in plenaria (n.d.r. mentre l'aula era molto vuota causa vacanze estive). L'Europa ha continuato a mettere la votazione in agenda per ottenere il risultato che si voleva dall'inizio. Questa NON è democrazia» #Privacy #ChatControl #EU

#chatcontrol Sembra che si sia fatto l'impossibile per permettere a grandi aziende statunitensi di continuare a scansionare i messaggi privati sulle loro piattaforme. https://pirati.io/2026/07/il-parlamento-europeo-da-il-via-libera-a-chat-control-1-0-breyer-i-nostri-figli-ne-risentiranno/

#ChatControl 1.0 HAS PASSED - despite a majority voting against it (314:276) 🚨 After the EU parliament has rejected it TWICE in the past, it has been pushed as an urgent procedure for a new plenary vote. The EU has simply continued to put the vote on the agenda to get the outcome they've wanted since the start. This is not democratic‼️ 📸 Roberta Metsola (EPP) who revived Chat Control 1.0 shaking hands with Mark Zuckerberg. Taken from EP_President posted May 27, 2026 on X.

🇮🇹 Il Parlamento europeo lascia passare il #ChatControl 1.0 nonostante una maggioranza abbia votato contro (314:276) – consentendo la scansione di massa delle chat private fino al 2028. Le vittime mettono in guardia. 👇 https://www.patrick-breyer.de/en/eu-parliament-greenlights-chat-control-1-0-breyer-our-children-lose-out/ #FallimentoDemocratico

🇪🇺 The European Parliament lets #ChatControl 1.0 go through despite a majority voting against it (314:276) – allowing mass scanning of private chats until 2028. Survivors are warning. My analysis and why this is the wrong approach 👇 https://www.patrick-breyer.de/en/eu-parliament-greenlights-chat-control-1-0-breyer-our-children-lose-out/ #DemocracyFail

Organic Maps supera 6 milioni di download: l'alternativa a Google va anche offline Sono ormai arrivati a 6 milioni i download che Organic Maps ha raggiunto a fine 2025, nonostante la concorrenza spietata di giganti come Google Maps. Un numero sensazionale per un'app nata con lo scopo di offrire mappe e navigazione senza rendere ogni spostamento dell'utente un concentrato di dati da analizzare e su cui monetizzare. https://www.hdblog.it/google/articoli/n663749/google-maps-organic-mappe-offline/ @openstreetmap_it

🇮🇹"Secondo questa logica di sorveglianza totalitaria, persino le nostre camere da letto dovrebbero essere tenute sotto controllo come potenziali luoghi di abuso." #ChatControl 1.0 è tanto pericolosa oggi quanto lo era al momento della sua introduzione.👇 https://peertube.european-pirates.eu/w/7pGWJQUJsPD6bUEn6VLwbU

🇪🇺"Following this totalitarian logic, even our bedrooms would have to be placed under surveillance as potential opportunities for abuse." #ChatControl 1.0 is just as dangerous today as it was when it was introduced.

Meta faces $1.4 trillion in damages for hooking kids on purpose. The company's market cap is $1.5 trillion. They're arguing the number is unprecedented in consumer protection history, which is technically true. It's also the first time anyone built a $1 trillion business on deliberately addicting children. https://gizmodo.com/metas-teen-safety-case-just-became-a-1-4-trillion-existential-threat-2000782306

On the topic of #ChatControl, I already started working a few days ago on an english video about my favorite FOSS instant messengers and the ones I think should be avoided. For now, you can take a look at my Software recommendations article on my website. https://gianmarco.gg/other/swrecommendations/#messaging-and-voip

I am extremely disappointed with Freesound's AI policy so far... They auto-opt in all creators to allow their sounds to be used for training generative machine learning models.... Without a way to opt-out. Get phucked. https://freesound.org/forum/freesound-project/44672/106594/ #Freesound #AI #slop #enshittification #CreativeCommons #GenAI #GoFuckYourself
