Excellent article on digital sovereignty.

Europe gets serious about cutting digital umbilical cord with Uncle Sam's big tech
Feature: Public bodies migrate in the bloc as hyperscalers claim sovereignty

"Living in Europe is no protection against Donald #Trump bricking your digital life."

Good Morning #Canada
My daily post is being hijacked once again, but this should be the last time.
The #MastoCanadaGOV initiative now has it's own account for communication and you can follow the team at @…. They have some updates scheduled over the next few days on progress towards convincing our government and politicians to build a presence in the Fediverse. It's small contribution towards #DigitalSovereignty by getting our government contacts off of U.S. controlled social media platforms.
My account can now return to meeting your expectation of Canadian trivia and bad puns... and the occasional beaver joke.

"Austria’s military has already dumped Microsoft and moved to open-source services hosted in Europe, and some German regional governments have done the same. Danish schools were told to abandon Google laptops by the Danish data protection authority in 2024. The new Dutch government says digital sovereignty will be a national priority"

Oh I like that scale,

In order to download EU law documents from #DigitalSovereignty is going great.

Irgend jemand scheint unter "Digitale Souveränität" etwas ganz anderes zu verstehen als der Rest der Welt.

RE: #Fediverse apps?
Marketing Idea:
Create a series of posts, memes or videos where real people share their positive experiences with #Mastadon, #Pixelfed, #PeerTube, #Loops, #Lemmy, #Friendica, etc. - like the example below. Then post those ad nauseum on the equivalent services: X, BlueSky, Threads, Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Reddit, Meta, etc. Think of it like a guerrilla campaign injecting positive experiences directly into the tech bros home turf. Be relentless with the messages.
I've seen some Fediverse content on U.S. social media platforms, like videos explaining what the Fediverse is, or how to choose a server on Mastodon. But, with all respect to our technical experts (love you all), we shouldn't have nerds selling the Fediverse to non-technical social media users. People will relate to real people connecting seamlessly across different platforms - for family, for entertainment, for education.

Open Source als Schlüssel zur digitalen Souveränität
