On the #CyberResilienceAct #CRA the @fsfe has already proposed a solution that will lead to more #security while safeguarding #FreeSoftware (#OpenSource):

• Liability should be shifted to those deploying Free Software instead of those developing Free Software and

• Those who significantly financially benefit from this deployment should make sure the software becomes CE-compliant

Gerade wenn man im digitalen Umfeld aktiv ist, sollte man nicht die Bedeutung von gedrucktem Informationsmaterial unterschätzen.

Ressourcen wie die Reihe "Kurz & Mündig" von @digitalcourage sind dabei extrem hilfreich, wenn ihr Menschen mehr über ihre Rechten im Digitalen vermitteln wollt. Nutzt das. #Ehrenamt #aktivcongress

Good intro in how to use the new #fdroid libraries which were developed for the #NextGeneration #Fdroid client. @grote explains how #CalyxOS by @calyxinstitute uses this.

Do you know organisations that offer programming workshops for children / teenagers in Europe (and that are again active after the lockdowns)?

If so, please let me know.

If not can you please boost to reach more people with the question?

Thank you!

Today the European Parliament's responsible committees voted by a large majority to protect #FreeSoftware in the #AI regulation.

@fsfe "The principle of transferring responsibility and liability to those who profit on the market instead of focusing on developers must also be anchored in the Cyber Resilience Act and the Product Liability Directive. This is the only way to not only protect Free Software and its contributors but also consumers and customers"

Honoured about Roberto Di Cosmo 's quote about my book:

"The story's engaging illustrations and relatable characters make it easy for children to understand the message, while also serving as a parable for adults who may not have had exposure to these concepts. I highly recommend Ada & Zangemann to parents, teachers, and anyone who wants to inspire the next generation of innovators and tinkerers."
