3/5 Our concern remains that once #AgeVerification is treated as the “appropriate” tool in this context, it risks becoming the default answer elsewhere too.

🇫🇷 is also pushing for an age-gated access social media.

Today’s verdict serves as a signal to any Member State seeking to go down that route: they will have to prove these strict conditions are met. It might be harder for social media platforms: the #DSA provides a different, more proportionate, framework to make online spaces safer.

#Frontrunner for next #mayor of #WashingtonDC

#Trump threatened to take over #DC if she wins, which gave a huge boost to her #campaign 🤭

Proudly affiliated with the #DemocraticSocialistsofAmerica #DSA

Running as a #Democrat because she has to in our #FPTP voting system

If you complain the #Democrats suck, you're right. But if that moves you to not vote, you're an idiot helping #MAGA

#Vote. In the #primaries. *Take them over*

Bin am Überlegen: Soll ich dieses Jahr mal wieder auf der #RatCon ein paar #Brettspiel Runden "Rote und Weiße Kamele" anbieten?

Vielleicht gar mit einer Challenge für Kenner: Schafft es jemand, mit Rot "sicher" zu gewinnen - also ohne auf Phexens HIlfe angewiesen zu sein, dass Weiß einen vierten Warenstein zum Sieg bräuchte?

Was sagt die #DSA Bubble? Haben ein paar Leute Lust auf ein #Kamelspiel in Langen Anfang August?

Mastodon signed the European Social Stack Open Declaration with Social Web and Fediverse peers to support open, decentralised social infrastructure in Europe 🧩
It sets principles of digital sovereignty, decentralised networks, and open protocols such as ActivityPub to reduce dependence on platforms 🌐

Microsoft has provided data about Dutch civil servants who work on EU digital laws to the US government, including emails, minutes, and invitations. The reasons for Europe to become digitally sovereign are becoming more clear by the day. Also unbelievable the US government is willing to violate its own domestic privacy laws to influence foreign lawmaking, a double no-go normally !

"Fundamentally, nothing will change", Biden telling his billionaire campaign investors.

This has been the face of the Democrat part for 30+ years.

Even Obama's magnum opus, ACA (Obamacare) was a Heritage Foundations counter-proposal to Hillary's single payer system. And we all saw how fast "SOSHULLIZM" howls were.

You want to see leftist politics? #DSA and #CPUSA.


no disagreement only clarification:

#AOC/ #Mamdani are #DSA that ran as #democrats

the way forward is take over the #democraticParty, not 3rd party (or worse, not voting)

with #FPTP voting in the #USA a 3rd party vote only divides the left vote and #MAGA wins

( #parliamentary #FPTP like the #UK lends 3rd parties stability)

worse: no #vote because "dems suck." while true, that only keeps them sucking

show up in the #primaries and choose the AOC/ Mamdani #candidate

Trusted flaggers guidelines under the #DSA: have your say!

Take part in the consultation on the draft guidelines for trusted flaggers, aimed at gathering input from stakeholders & ensuring that the guidelines provide clear & effective guidance on the key aspects of the mechanism.

#DSA


It's great that the European Commission take another #DSA non-compliance decision. There is so much infringement of the law out there, this is very necessary.

But a 200m EUR fine is laughable. That's worth less than a few days of net profit for #Temu's holding PDD. It could have been 6% of annual global turnover, or 2.8 billion EUR.

With these ridiculously low fines the DSA will never be respected by #BigTech.

#DigitalServicesAct


Today, we have imposed a €200 million fine on Temu under the Digital Services Act, for failing to identify, analyse, and assess the systemic risks of illegal products being offered on its platform.

The evidence at our disposal indicates that consumers in the EU are very likely to encounter illegal items on Temu.

Wir koennen noch so oft den #diday feiern, aber wenn die @EUCommission Verstoesse gegen #DMA & #DSA nicht ahndet, sondern vor #BigTech einknickt, dann wird das einfach nichts!

Eben erst soll Ursula von der Leyen eine Mrd-Strafe gegen #Google eingefangen haben, jetzt schon zieht #TikTok vor Gericht & will nicht mehr als Gatekeeper eingeordnet werden.

1/ 🥳 Big news for digital rights in Europe: Ireland’s Digital Services Coordinator, Coimisiún na Meán, has opened a formal investigation into Meta’s potential use of “dark patterns” that may prevent people from choosing feeds not based on profiling on Facebook and Instagram.

👏 We’re glad to see regulators taking these concerns seriously. This investigation could become a major step toward meaningful #DSA enforcement and stronger user rights across the EU.

#Europe wants out from under #US #tech – but first it has to find the exits
Architect of #EU's #DigitalServicesAct (#DSA) – pet hate of Trump – has yet to be deterred. Last month, he joined a chorus of calls for Europe to end its reliance on dominant US tech. "The time for an apologetic Europe is over," the former Atos CEO said in a rallying cry that points out we now live in a world "where #digitalsovereignty has become one of the central arenas of power politics."

Irish regulator investigating Meta over ‘dark patterns’ on your Facebook and Instagram feeds

Ireland has launched two investigations over whether Facebook and Instagram may have breached parts of the EU’s Digital Services Act by using “dark patterns" - which are design features that may steer or pressure users into certain choices online.

‘Dark patterns’: Investigating online manipulation.

Ireland’s media regulator is investigating Facebook and Instagram on suspicion that manipulative user interfaces — so-called dark patterns — are used, violating Article 27 of the EU Digital Services Act (DSA).

A breach could result in fines of up to 6% of global annual revenue. In Meta’s case, this would amount to up to €20 billion.
