Heike Raab at #EuroskyLive says "We need:

1. sustainable financing of free and independent media
2. to protect communication spaces from manipulation
3. to reform media concentration law against concentration in social media.

Regulation isn't enough, we need our own European infrastructure."

Super proud to be part of the EU Horizon proposal Social-PETs. It aims to bring privacy-enhancing tech (PETs) like homomorphic encryption and secure multiparty computation to open social networks such as #ATProto, making powerful recommender systems possible without centralised data.
