Hi Fediverse!👋 We're Volt Europa, a pan-European political party building a federal, green, and progressive Europe. 🇪🇺
We believe in digital sovereignty, transparency, and putting people before platforms. Sound familiar? That's precisely why we're here.
We're not just looking for another channel to broadcast on. We chose this space because it reflects what we stand for: open, decentralised, and community-driven. We want to be part of this, not just present on it.

Now, let's be honest. We know what it looks like when organisations show up, cross-post for two weeks, and disappear. We don't want to be that. But we're a small team with limited resources, so we need this to work both ways.
Engage with us. Challenge us. Tell us what you want to see from a European political party in this space. Help us make this worth it, for all of us.
This is the start of a conversation, not a campaign. Let's talk. 💜

The US Congress Judiciary Committee is pushing US tech companies, such as Alphabet, Meta, Microsoft, TikTok and X, to provide access to ALL communications with European Commission officials that relate to the enforcement of EU digital rules, in letters sent Monday. 🚨🇪🇺
The committee said its subpoenas require that documents are not deleted or modified, and that it expects “full compliance.”
Behold, the CLOUD act in practice.
The oldest written #hummus recipe in the world is 776 years old...
It was written in Aleppo, Syria in 1250 CE by a historian named Ibn al-'Adeem. Not a chef. A historian. Who also happened to document one of the most extraordinary cookbooks of the medieval period.
The base of the recipe is identical to what you make today. Chickpeas, tahini, lemon, garlic, salt. That part has not changed in 776 years.

The annoucement of the Unified Attestation consortium made quite some noise earlier in the week. With supporters and detractors.
Before discussing one or the other solution, I would have really liked to understand what theses banking, payment, and ID apps *have to* (by law) check with my device, and what they don't have to but find to be practical with the Play Integrity solution.
If you are into this type of law, or app security, please share any info or pointers.
And if you want to boost or suggest good hashtags, that would be neat. Thanks!
Detta behöver vi i Europa vara väl medvetna om.

I just learnt that Obsidian is Candian and not from the US which i avoid, so this is wonderful news!
It took the U.S. 10 years to replace the Taliban with the Taliban in Afghanistan.
But it only took them 1 week in Iran to replace Ayatollah Khamenei with Ayatollah Khamenei.
