Let <C> be citizenship status of those that are in control of the organization.

Let <J> be jurisdiction the organization is registered within.

For people who care more about changing J than about changing C this switch seems to make sense, doesn’t it?

Honestly this weekend was when OpenAI jumped the shark for me. I was willing to extend them benefit of the doubt right up to the point where they signed a contract with the government that allows autonomous weapons, while telling everyone that it prohibits them.

Breaking news: @eurosky.social is a 🕵️‍♀️ CIA psyop taken down by a €2.95 request to a Dutch chamber of commerce. Sources have revealed that one of the team is... 🫨 American

Not sure if the ‘Lack of Patriotism’ and ‘Enemy Within’ narrative will work in this context.

Goering claimed that it always does:

Historically, we know that even zen priests can be whipped up like that, but what about those that are chronically dopamine depleted?

THIS.

What could ‘Anti Proprietary Media’ mean?

Any form of mass communication that is ‘based on infrastructure’ that ‘cannot be owned privately’?

Seems feasible in all modern non-police-states, doesn’t it?

‘protocol survival’ sounds a bit like a category mistake to me. So maybe this question doesn’t make much sense, but:

What would be the ‘survival rate maximizing strategies’ in this context?

This separates ATP from Bluesky dependency. If Bluesky fails, the protocol survives as internet standard. Same level as HTTP or TCP/IP, not application layer like programming languages.

RFC publication takes time. But the charter shows serious commitment.

Interoperability with Mastodon/ActivityPub · bluesky-social atproto · Discussion #1716 What are the current plans from BlueSky (the company) for interoperability with Mastodon/ActivityPub? We currently have two emerging alternatives to X that deserve to be taken seriously: the fedive...

Just learned about FediSky, a project by @msonnberger.com that adds an ActivityPub instance sidecar to a PDS.

Think Bridgy Fed except hosted by the PDS owner or Wafrn except reversed.

Still in early dev, but keeping an eye on this space 👀

Afaik: Fakes werden durch Initiativen wie en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Content... vermutlich besser handhabbar - „wenn keine korrekte Signatur = vermutlich Fake“

Der Haken daran: sobald das in unseren Kameras zur Anwendung kommt entsteht Folgeproblem:

*Anonymes* Whistleblowing wird deutlich aufwendiger 🤷🏻‍♂️

Additionally to Canada & EU - who would probably like to join in on some serious (media focused) anti-authoritarian-backsliding action?

My colleague and I wrote a piece about the urgent need for Europe to partner with Canada in building a digitally sovereign ecosystem—one that can withstand the threats posed by US tech authoritarianism:

This reminded of the talk by Jen from @gandersocial.bsky.social in Berlin a few weeks ago. AFAIK she tried to make a similar point?

Let’s build more Canadian-European projects

Trump Ends America’s Leadership on Internet Freedom | TechPolicy.Press By walking away, the US is dismantling the mechanism that once turned Western values into a lifeline for those behind a firewall, writes Konstantinos Komaitis.

On Wednesday, President Donald Trump withdrew the United States from 66 international bodies, including the Freedom Online Coalition. With this move, the US has formally stepped away from a core part of its leadership of the global Internet norms it once helped build, writes Konstantinos Komaitis.

I just submitted to present at #ATmosphereConf on the topic of "Advocating for Digital Sovereignty: 🇪🇺 Experiences and Global Lessons"

Does this comment show up?

Right now at house of tea. Look for table with person wearing light blue beany, right next to coffeenerds

Yo #atproto #atmosphere #bluesky folks at #39c3 \o/

Who’s up for an adhoc get-together?

How about:

Alternative proposals welcome 🙏

Hellooo there 🙋🏻‍♂️

Any idea where other atp folks may gather?

Four public-interest researchers have been barred from the US for holding tech companies accountable. When governments target researchers, journalists and watchdogs, it is an assault on free speech and we should call it out as such.

Researchers are not censors. They are being censored.

who’s at #39C3 and also interested in #atproto #didplc related meetups and workshops?

(or knows someone who might be?)

@atproto.science
@eurosky.social
@atprotocol.dev

@tgoerke.bsky.social
@wake.st
@renderg.host
@bmann.ca
@bnewbold.net

I like this and I’m interested in helping refine it.

For analytical purpose, plz let me ask:

What would be definition of ‘doomscrolling’ in this context?
