I'll be speaking at #OSXP in Paris tomorrow at 16:30, about the threat posed to #OpenSource by legacy gatekeepers as they try to take new markets from gatekeeper platforms.

Want to meet? Message me here!

Politico wants us to worry that foreign companies may influence European #policy and #legislation on AI. The far greater issue they ignore is that, by handing the pen to ETSI, their attitude that including royalty-required patents into #standards is desirable will be reflected in European law, locking out open source and thus also citizen scrutiny of code.

Also horrifyingly tolerated by @EU_Commission - I'll be speaking about this at #OSXP and #SFSCon this week.
