Benissimo, il prossimo passaggio chiave è quello di passare davvero a un "cloud sovrano". A poco servono i proclami quando siamo dipendenti dalle mosse dei colossi tech americani.

"L’Antitrust italiana apre una istruttoria nei confronti delle società Microsoft Ireland Operations Ltd e Microsoft srl per pratica commerciale scorretta relativa alle informazioni sull’aumento del prezzo di abbonamento al servizio “Microsoft 365”. Il gruppo - spiega una nota dell’Autorità - non avrebbe evidenziato in modo adeguato che il servizio offerto in abbonamento è stato integrato dai servizi di intelligenza artificiale “Copilot” e “Designer”. Inoltre, ai consumatori sarebbe stato imposto, come opzione di default e salvo l’esercizio del recesso, un nuovo piano di abbonamento con un prezzo più elevato." #nobigtech #digitalsovereignty

mistral.ai dreht gerade richtig auf. Schön zu sehen, dass da eine europäische Alternative erwächst, die sich inzwischen echt sehen lassen kann.

Wer lange nicht mehr reingeschaut hat, sollte #Mistral noch mal eine Chance geben!

The importance of federated social media should not be underestimated. The concept of data sovereignty offers users the opportunity to break free from Big Tech corporations. The #ActivityPub integration also provides content creators, such as freelancers, musicians, artists and journalists, with a global reach. So, I highly recommend joining Loops Video!

Ah ben zut alors !

Bon d'accord, ça n'a rien d'une surprise. C'était prévisible à 1000%. Utiliser les outils du big tech ça finit toujours comme ça.

Fuyez, pauvres fous !

I recently gave a talk on how to find alternatives to Big Tech software. I figured that it might be useful to others as well! If you want to disentangle yourself from Big Tech but don't know where to start, this might be for you!

It's somewhat geared towards academic students/researchers, but it should be relevant for anyone taking their first steps away from Big Tech.

Holy shit. The following is terrifying, and I hope it's just a rumour:

"A controversial deal in the U.S. could fundamentally rewrite internet freedom as we know it.

The congressional deal would trade the deregulation of artificial intelligence for unprecedented federal censorship powers.

A high-stakes compromise is quietly brewing in Washington as the White House negotiates with congressional leaders to fundamentally reshape the digital landscape.

Under the proposed deal reported by Axios, the federal government would strip states of their authority to regulate artificial intelligence—effectively halting progressive state-level efforts to hold tech companies accountable and restrict energy-heavy AI data centers.

In exchange, lawmakers would push through three major federal censorship bills: the Kids Online Safety Act, the NO FAKES Act, and a federal online age verification mandate. While framed as common-sense protections for minors, civil liberties advocates warn these measures represent an unprecedented expansion of federal control over online speech.

The backlash to this legislative trade-off cuts across typical political lines. Even conservative-backed organizations like the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression (FIRE) have issued stark warnings, declaring that the package would dismantle the internet as we know it by empowering the Federal Trade Commission to dictate acceptable online speech.

Opponents argue that enforcing these rules would effectively eliminate online anonymity while giving the administration an incredibly powerful tool to censor dissenting political views and control what users see on major platforms like Instagram.

As the White House maneuvers to secure congressional backing, Americans are left facing a troubling dilemma: the long-sought-after regulation of big tech and AI may come at the direct cost of their fundamental constitutional rights to free expression."
