I just attended a very inspiring #FnF23 session convened by @erikkemp on the topic of Fediverse governance. People from many countries, backgrounds and groups were present.

In my opinion, it's too early for creating governing bodies, and I'm not sure we will ever need them. What I find useful is covenants that instances can sign. E.g. digitalcourage.social signed the well-known Mastodon covenant <https://joinmastodon.org/covenant> as well as the #fedimins covenant <https://fedimins.net/en/covenant/> which is still a work in progress.

The second day of #FnF23 starts with a “What's going on in your country?” session where participants inform each other about developments in surveillance and other ways digitialization is going astray in their EU member states.

@Andreea from @edri started with a quick overview of EU legislation plans.

Wie absurd teuer sind denn bitte #Gleitlagerbuchsen? Schon für die einfachsten Ausführungen sind teilweise mehrere € pro Stück fällig.
Zum Vergleich, für #Rillenkugellager in überraschend guter Qualität für den selben Wellendurchmesser (12mm) habe ich 73 cent/Stk bezahlt. 🙄

Ist aber erstmal auch egal. Jetzt geht es erstmal Richtung #Brüssel zu #freedomnotfear #fnf23 🤪🇪🇺

The European Data Protection Supervisor (@EDPS@social.network.europa.eu) Wojciech Wiewiórowski (@EDPS_supervisor) right now giving a brief input on “Fediverse for Public Administration. Why we try and why we fail”.

Responding to a (too) short definition of the Fediverse as an antidote to big-tech social media platforms, he stated:

“I have nothing against big. I have nothing against American. I have nothing against platform. I have something against dependent.”

A recording of the talk will be published on his office's PeerTube instance (@edps@tube.network.europa.eu / @edps_tv).

Auf dem Weg nach Brüssel zu #FreedomNotFear, dem europäischen Barcamp für Digitalrechte. Ein Schwerpunkt wird für mich auf der Koordination weiterer Aktionen gegen die #Chatkontrolle liegen, wozu ich bei #FnF23 auch mit anderen aus dem #StopScanningMe-Bündnis einen Workshop abhalte. #ChatkontrolleStoppen!
Denn jetzt im September wird es ernst, wie @andre_meister für @netzpolitik_feed berichtet:
