Dear Fedi friends,
Apologies for another toot about #WSocial but I am genuinely shaking right now.
The @EUCommission and its president Ursula von der Leyen have recently migrated their ATproto (Bluesky) accounts to W Social.
I cannot fathom why they would pick a private enterprise whose leaders didn't even have ATproto accounts 3 months ago... and who are so open to having their users' data mined to train European AI models.
My articles on them:

@_elena I'm sure I'm missing something, but why are they bothing with W Social when they have a Mastodon instance here? is there value that W Social adds that is impossible with Mastodon? @EUCommission

️ More shocking news! 
Christine Lagarde and the European Central Bank have just migrated to #WSocial too!!!
(For context, see the beginning of this thread).
I'm at a loss for words today. Truly.
What a world.
If you missed my exposés on this controversial, problematic company, here they are:
- I don't get why #wsocial and not #eurosky
- Or even better, to bridge their #fediverse accounts with #bridgyfedThe best thing I could find about this news, is to spread the concept of different federated servers, to the european people on #atproto
They will see in action that an account they follow could simply migrate, and they could alsocc @hpod16
