Patrick Breyer

🇬🇧 Ursula von der Leyen has been continuously eroding our fundamental rights. In the past five years, her EU Commission proposed:

❌the end of private messaging and secure encryption
❌introducing unique citizen identifiers
❌a working group to resurrect indiscriminate
❌essentially unchanged online tracking & micro-targeting practices
❌legalising 's unlawful bulk data collection practices
❌ultra-fast cross-border online content removals without court orders
❌allowing for in the
❌granting industry access to our without our consent

Von der Leyen’s Europe needs digital freedom fighters!

@echo_pbreyer van Leyen is just the ‘face of the organization’.

It is the system with its non transparent ways of accepting lobbying and big money doing the lobbying and being successful at it that is the problem.

I agree that ‘pirates’ may be the solution, but only in the sense of ‘a sane and democracy promoting alternative to a lot of the powers within the system’ if only we took the European Human Rights laws as a starting point for all new legislation.

@echo_pbreyer Personally, I think that people underestimate the capacity for nastiness from the DSA.

Quite a few member states don't protect freedom of expression well (or always well), emboldening them with a mechanism to drive censorship doesn't seem like a good idea.

While they, of course, could already do censorship through various means, the DSA streamlines it, and that is why I think it is bad. But, then, maybe that just exposes a deeper issue?

@echo_pbreyer
Sounds like you should vote her commission out.

Unless of course it's a system with a massive democratic deficit where you can't do that.
