CDU přijala na svém stranickém sjezdu zajímavé usnesení týkající se digitální suverenity.

Bylo by žádoucí, aby její ministerstva nyní důsledně implementovala požadavky kladené na spolkovou vládu:

veřejné peníze, veřejný kód, stát jako klíčový zákazník a podpora otevřeného šifrování.

1. Výrazné rozšíření strategie „Stát jako kotvící zákazník“ s cílem cíleně podporovat technologie pro suverenitu v konkurenci. Do zadávání zakázek chceme zapojit startupy.
2. Cílená podpora nezávislých, otevřených bezpečnostních a šifrovacích řešení a digitální infrastruktury za účelem systematického snižování závislosti na mimoevropských dodavatelích.
7. Implementace principu "Public Money, Public Code" (Veřejné peníze, veřejný kód) u vlastních vývojů státu.

Each dot in this picture is a Nazi-fascist massacre in Italy that happened between 1943 and 1945.

This is the result of a project that lasted years, summarized by the Atlante delle Stragi Nazifasciste https://www.straginazifasciste.it/

6000 of them, the whole peninsula is covered in red. Almost every village from Naples to Bozen has at least a monument to keep the memory of the massacred alive.

Note that this doesn’t include battlefield or other warfare acts. Only acts of violence against the civilian population. Which resulted in more than 24,000 deaths in two years. More than 33 civilians killed every day.

This is the memory that is worth keeping alive now that the world is again sleepwalking towards those horrors.

This is why even a bulwark of liberalism like Popper said that freedom of speech and action doesn’t apply to fascists.

This is why grandsons of partisans keep repeating that the only good fascist is a dead one, and that violence against them should not only be tolerated but encouraged.

This is why we keep repeating that you can’t just talk or vote fascism out - it never leaves without a lot of blood.

And then those filthy pigs also dare to play the part of the victims when we invoke violence against them.

And then they keep repeating stale (and utterly false) refrains like “but Mussolini also did some good things”.

❓Have you noticed that digital products and services are getting worse? So have we!

➡️We have published a report about enshittification, on how and why digital products and services keep getting worse - and how we can turn the trend (hint: open tech, enforcement, public policy++)

Obviously @pluralistic is a big inspiration and help in this work.

More than 80 groups in Europe and the US has joined in a call to action.

Greens beat Reform! 💚

Congratulations to Hannah Spencer and our friends in the Green Party on their historic by-election victory in Gorton and Denton.

We will never let the politics of hate divide us. The Greens will always put people and planet before profit.
