Our commitment to the fediverse is here to stay.

Today, we launched our new Mastodon instance. It will ensure a privacy-focused space to engage with and get the latest from our Commissioners, departments, and the official voices of the Commission.

We want to thank @Mastodon for stewarding us and helping us make this possible.

Fostering European digital players is vital to our strategy for a stronger #DigitalEU.

This is a unique opportunity to grow the community even more. Let's get there!

Uh oh! Secret Hamas Files Show It Spied on Everyday Palestinians.

Hamas monitored political activity, online posts, and apparently even love lives. Palestinians were stuck between an Israeli blockade and a repressive security force.

A happy ending for the company who annoyed #Apple & #iMessage users everywhere.

As far as a universal messaging system goes, this has been attempted numerous times with little success. I can see #Beeper complimenting #WordPress sites, but I do not see them creating a universal standard for sending messages.

But do we need a universal messaging system when we have email‽

Beeper & Texts

It's such a delight when a plan comes together and unfolds, especially when it's something you've been working on for many years. Today the announcement went out that we're combining the best technology from Beeper and Texts to create a great private, secure, and open source messaging client for people to have control of their communications. We're going to use the Beeper brand, because it's fun.

I have some work to do in order to get my disc golf game back. I just never felt confident throwing today. I think it’s time to do some field work and putting drills.

Misinformation & pseudoscience is not a new or emerging phenomenon because of social media.

Rather, it’s been amplified & weaponized through social media.

Now that Israel has shown, bombing embassies is perfectly alright, and there has been little criticism from the EU and the US, Equador carries out an armed attack against the Mexican embassy in Quito and removes a refugee by force to throw him in jail.

I look forward to US and EU diplomats criticizing this attack, and Equador replying, “What do you mean? We did not bomb an embassy… that was your ally Israel!”

When we do not uphold international law, anarchy ensues.

There's an interesting thing I notice. A lot of times I see post on fedi that say "I'm not antisemitic a lot of Jews agree with me" or similar.

Here's the thing though, if you need to invoke the jews because you think you sound antisemitic the intent behind whatever you're saying is probably coming from a different place than your tokenized Jews. And you are antisemitic.

Even if we agree.

I'm not sure what's funnier about these audiobook recommendations.

1. Putting Elon Musk next to "Are you dumb?"

or

2. Putting Elon next to Fundamentals of Software Architecture.

@stux @stux @phillycodehound @antonioserrata Sorry to bother you. Wondering if you plan to defederate masto.ai with threads.net/meta/facebook/instagram. I have a lot of concerns over their policies and practices and that is why I use mastodon, to get away from big corporations. Thanks in advance!
