With all the new #Mastodon instances spun up those past weeks, I think it's time to start looking into legal obligations for (EU-based) admins. I'm thinking #DSA, #GDPR, #TERREG, #CopyrightDirective,...
Maybe what we need is something like a non-profit legal advice & defence cooperative for #Fediverse admins.
@ilumium happy to help just in case with GDPR/ePrivacy/DSA. But best to do a task group for all instances (with recos), not for specific instances …
@LukaszOlejnik @ilumium I'm willing to help ☺️ n DP maybe historic ECD case law but I think a nice grant for this wld be good 🤣 also is anyone doing it for US; cos I am only seeing basically made up stuff from there..
@lilianedwards @ilumium Great! Keep me posted if desired, and we can go. It's kind of tricky because... there's no ONE actor here, but distributed ones. Makes some things easier, others, who knows. The legislators did not openly consider such creations, it seems.
@LukaszOlejnik @lilianedwards Thank you both for the kind offers to help. I'll be back in touch and agree that some funding would be nice :)
@ilumium @lilianedwards if anything moves, email me (DMs here are… well they require to get used to them)
