@Meowki Synes dette høres ut som en grei løsning på problemene: https://www.forbrukerradet.no/siste-nytt/forbrukerradet-vil-forby-overvakningsbasert-markedsforing/
Forbrukerrådet vil forby overvåkningsbasert markedsføring

Overvåkningsbasert markedsføring utsetter forbrukere for manipulasjon, svindel, diskriminering og personvernbrudd. Forbrukerrådet ber nå om et forbud mot reklame basert på sporing og profilering.

Et statskupp gjennomført fra innsiden av staten dag for dag - i 1933. Sett gjennom øynene til en vennligsinnet og borgerlig norsk avis. Del 16. På denne dagen, 24. mars 1933, skrev Aftenposten om Hitlers «flammende tale» til den tyske Riksdagen.

Fint. Men håper de da også har tenkt å sperre for #Facebook og #Twitter. Begge brukes til politisk påvirking på vegne av autokrater.

@richardlea @pluralistic @urixturing @bookstodon good thoughts there! I'd put in some good old "copyright law doesn't fix monopolies, that's what we need competition law (enforcement) for". Because if these companies weren't so powerful in the first place, all the rest would also work better. We've just forgotten how to enact competition law. Becasue that would mean splitting apart the big companies until nobody can become a billionaire from them.

This New Open-Source Alternative to Google Docs and Notion Is Backed by France and Germany

Docs is an web-based collaborative text editor that is the result of a joint effort led by the French 🇫🇷🥖 (DINUM) and German 🇩🇪🥨 governments (ZenDiS).

It's a good alternative to popular services like Notion, Google Docs and Outline.

The platform offers real-time collaboration capabilities, a sleek minimalist interface, and all the essential features you could possibly need.

Best of all, Docs is open-source on GitHub and can be self-hosted, making it a viable option for local agencies and companies.

You can test Docs on your browser by visiting this page:
