Ogni selfie o documento d'identità caricato su ChatGPT, Roblox, LinkedIn e molti altri siti per la verifica viene gestito da un'azienda di San Francisco chiamata Persona. Una fuga di notizie di massa ha svelato l'altra faccia della medaglia: una piattaforma in grado di fornire al governo degli Stati Uniti 269 sofisticati controlli di sorveglianza su milioni di utenti in tutto il mondo.

Reflection: I don't email my MEPs very often, but I've always gotten some sort of response from at least one or two (even if clearly an intern just replying with some boilerplate) - until now. Both of the emails I've sent the last few months regarding Chat Control have had absolutely no responses whatsoever.
I do use ProtonMail, which in some cases could be a sign that there's automatic blackholing, but I use my own domain so it would be a very extreme case if so.
Just a data point, if you hear others with similar experienced.
I wrote to Irish MEPs 4 months ago. Only one replied: Maria Walsh, a member of the LIBE Committee. She was strongly in favour of the proposed legislation and accepted the adequacy of controls. My reply:
"The technology for detection of child sexual abuse content can be repurposed for detection of anything a govt wants detected...
I will monitor the votes of Irish MEPs and will donate generously at the next election to the opponents of anyone voting in favour of this legislation."

Dis, j'ai un souci : quand je vais sur le site, depuis mon ordinateur, je n'ai pas de ? ... et je vois qu'il y a des personnes, comme par exemple Mme Aubry, pour laquelle la position n'est pas connue, mais uniquement sur le chat control 1.0 - elle s'est déjà positionnée sur le chat control 2.0
@guepi Tu trouves les ? dans le deuxième image de mon toot original. La Gauche (Mme Aubry) est déjà contre. Plus important d'appeller les députés de la Commission LIBE.
Danke für den Reminder !Hier gibt es das Kontakttool um direkt vom Smartphone die deutschen MdEPs zu kontaktieren: fightchatcontrol.eu/de/?countr…
Wichtig leute die bereits als Gegner der Chatkontrolle markiert sind nicht nerven, Unentschlossene überzeugen hat Prio, wer sich streiten will die Befürworter der Chatkontrolle bearbeiten. Argumente gibt es ebenfalls auf der Seite. Danke @chatcontrol für die Seite!
Nichts für mich, ich telefoniere äußerst ungern mit Fremden, und ich bin auch unglaublich schlecht darin. Selbst mit Freunden und Bekannten kommuniziere ich lieber schriftlich, wenn es geht. Mit Menschen reden ist anstrengend, mit Menschen per Telefon reden ist noch anstrengender, und mit fremden Menschen am Telefon reden, ist unglaublich ermüdend, stressig und emotional zermürbend für mich.

Il Comitato europeo per la protezione dei dati (EDPB) individua le sfide che ostacolano la piena attuazione del diritto all'oblio
Bruxelles, 18 febbraio - Il Comitato europeo per la protezione dei dati (EDPB) ha adottato una relazione sull'azione del suo Coordinated Enforcement Framework (CEF) sul diritto all'oblio (art. 17 GDPR) . Il Comitato si è concentrato questa discussione in quanto si tratta uno dei diritti GDPR più frequentemente esercitati e uno in merito al quale le autorità di protezione dei dati ricevono frequentemente reclami da parte dei cittadini.

Algorithms are shaping access to welfare. But at what cost?
In the coming EAPN Talks, we discuss together with @LaQuadrature the role of tech in the welfare state - from innovation to surveillance risks - and what safeguards we urgently need.
🗓️ Date: Wednesday 24 February 2026
🕒 Time: 14:00 (CET)
💻 Format: Online
Organised in collaboration with La Quadrature du Net and European Digital Rights.
💋 There is only one way to KISS – Keep it Safe and Secure: with strong encryption, ban on spyware, democratic oversight and communities with power. Anything less than that is control & surveillance.
Together with allies, we’re launching this campaign to protect our messages AND devices in digital space.

Quando l'archiviazione del codice sorgente viene riconosciuta come bene pubblico digitale: spunti dal percorso decennale di Software Heritage presso l'UNESCO
Senza conservazione, le società perdono la capacità di comprendere come sono stati costruiti i sistemi, perché sono state prese le decisioni e come la conoscenza si è evoluta nel tempo. La conservazione, quindi, non significa guardare al passato; significa consentire la continuità. Quando il software viene preservato, la conoscenza rimane verificabile. Quando il software è accessibile, l'apprendimento diventa possibile. Quando il software è documentato, l'innovazione può basarsi su ciò che già esiste. Ciò è particolarmente importante per le comunità con meno risorse, dove perdere la conoscenza digitale significa perdere opportunità
