Online platforms have always held all the cards.
The DSA is changing that. One clear set of rules to protect people across the EU.
It’s about choice. The DSA requires the biggest platforms to offer a feed that isn't based on your personal data. It’s about safety. What’s illegal offline should be illegal online. It’s about freedom. In Europe, you have the right to challenge content moderation decisions taken by platforms.An internet that works for people.
@EUCommission meanwhile you legalize spying on everyone except yourself. You're hypocrites and lairs.

That’s a great idea, @plausibel!
It’s a good thing we are already doing it.
Last year we launched a call for proposals titled “Fediversity”. More info here: https://link.europa.eu/M9rCH3
Our colleagues @EC_NGI regularly post about opportunities like this, you can follow them to receive them directly in your Fedi feed.@EUCommission @plausibel @EC_NGI
Total funding available: 365. 000,00 €
That's a amount of money Meta has for one hour / one day?

I am not an expert on this topic, but it appears that the EU commission is not really doing anything about malfeasance by the US monopolies. Justice delayed is justice denied. The fines are less than their profits. X booted you from advertising, you should have responded by banning them in Europe. You appear feckless.
I am very glad that at least you have a presence on the Fediverse. I hope this feedback does not scare you away.

A good start.
However, companies and leaders who violate these rules must face criminal charges. Fines are nothing more than just another cost of doing business for them, and won't actually change their behavior.
@juergen_hubert @EUCommission
Especially managers, board and shareholders.Fining a Company/Corporation is passed on to customers. Not a big deterrent.

@EUCommission Though your feed under your control can be a good thing (Nostr is exactly that), the DSA is just another tool for the EU to bring our feed under your control so we don't get to see what you don't approve off. No thank you. -

Great idea, but then the EU should also ignore the lobbyists, kick out the corrupt people, drop data retention, show some backbone and stop always bowing down to the tech billionaires!
Then it might work. -

@EUCommission Now, don't you throw our privacy and protections under the Digital Omnibus! We're watching you, EU Commission!
No kneeling before US TechBros.
EU People before Business.
Regulate commercial Digital Platforms.
Protect our Rights against unlawful interference of US TechBusiness.
Whoever wants to do business in the EU, must play by and respect EU Rules.
No exceptions for, and no deals with offending perpetrators! -

@EUCommission what you need to do is classify chronological feed only with your followers posts as social network, and anything with data based feed, or includes non follower posts as content platforms, then you create different legislation for each, been the second more restrictive
