Deregulation would give corporate actors more power than ever. Joint statement: Uphold EU laws that rightly give all people control over their sensitive information www.amnesty.eu/news/eu-must...
The EU must uphold hard-won protections for digital human rights

There’s always a “major problem” — wherever you are and whatever you do, there will always be something that annoys you more than anything else. Even if it’s a place that looks like some kind of mythical paradise :) #majorproblem #psychology
I've drawn the trip I recently made using nice EU-made maps Mapy.com and goofy Paint Online (BTW there are better web editors to do it, e.g. #photopea) #WHY2025 #froscon #froscon2025 #euroscipy #euroscipy2025 #mapy #mapycom #jspaint

Athens. Summer school dedicated for natural language processing. Organizers are really great. #AthNLP #AthNLP2025 #NLP #Demokritos
