Heike Raab at #EuroskyLive says "We need:

1. sustainable financing of free and independent media
2. to protect communication spaces from manipulation
3. to reform media concentration law against concentration in social media.

Regulation isn't enough, we need our own European infrastructure."

Next week I’ll be in Berlin for a European Digital Sovereignty Summit satellite event to help launch @eurosky.social.

So it's time to ask: what does #sovereignty look like in the #socialmedia space?

Super proud to be part of the EU Horizon proposal Social-PETs. It aims to bring privacy-enhancing tech (PETs) like homomorphic encryption and secure multiparty computation to open social networks such as #ATProto, making powerful recommender systems possible without centralised data.

I am so looking forward to @eurosky.social and I wrote down why I care about this ecosystem, both as an artist and as a coder. Including shoutout to @flashes.blue and @seabass.bsky.social #WeCanJustDoThings
Why ATProto and Bluesky matter to artists. Or at least why it matters to me.
A personal story about why I want to be part of the ATProto community, as a coder and as an artist. And why people need to invest money in it. Let's talk at Eurosky in Berlin.
