A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

I would have loved to see the initiators to go the official way for the petition as I agree that change.org won't change much. Here we go: https://commission.europa.eu/get-involved/engage-eu-policymaking/petition-eu_en

The disinfo thing is regulated by the DSA - Digital Services Act, and it very much applies to Twitter.
