@davidross From the Swedish MEP I talked to about this it looks like it will pass the first vote, but has some hope of being stopped in plenum

@tomas thanks for sharing this. It's deeply troubling to me still. I hope you're right!

At least one MEP I wrote to is PRO. I'm now kicking myself that I did not include concerns on decentralised social networks like the Fediverse. The clearcut distinction they might have in their minds about who this affects does not transfer to technological reality [AGAIN].

@davidross Do write them again and include concerns around things like Wikis, forums or really any kind of self-hosted thing. If they're a bit right-wing, try the small business angle..

Both Swedish MEPs in JURI are against, luckily
