PhD Candidate at @Radboud_uni and the University of St Andrews. Mostly working on Medieval logics and metaphysics within the @i2erc project. I also study computer science whenever I can. I run @thedebugger, a publication that covers the intersection of tech and politics from a European perspective. I actually don't like social media.

I do not accept followers from automated or empty accounts. It's nothing personal (literally).

🎉 The critical amendment 34 (rejecting automated assessment of unknown photos and texts) PASSED by ONE vote, paving the way for the extension of Chat Control 1.0 to be overwhelmingly REJECTED!

Dear Europe: Germany has shown the way forward, by making the Open Document Format (ODF) mandatory within its sovereign digital infrastructure. Now it's time for other countries to do the same! https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2026/03/23/dear-europe/ #foss #opensource #freesoftware #openstandards

I just visited the website of the European Data Protection Supervisor @EDPS and noticed that they have a @Mastodon icon / link in their social media navigation bar in the upper right side of the screen.

This is simply AMAZING!!!

Thank you so much for being here on the #fediverse and for raising awareness about it with your website visitors ❤️

@EUCommission can you please be next? I argued for this in my latest article: https://blog.elenarossini.com/openness-transparency-and-reach-three-reasons-why-public-institutions-should-embrace-the-fediverse/

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.

In case you've just written a paper and are still uncertain where to publish it (but you want to publish it Open Access, of course!), the TIB Hanover has the right tool for you: their Bibliometric and Semantic Open Access Recommender Network (BISON). It finds suitable Open Access journals based on the title, abstract, and references of your paper and, perhaps most important, is GDPR-compliant and does not store any of your data.
