everton137<p>I think this public letter 'Against Big Tech's Attack on Digital Sovereignties' raises some important points, I would like references to some claims, but one thing is definitely false: </p><p>"Subsequently, President Lula da Silva made clear the intention of the Brazilian government to pursue digital independence: lessening the countries’ reliance of foreign entities for data, AI capabilities and digital infrastructure and promoting the development of local tech ecosystems."</p><p>Seriously? The first thing made by the communication team of the Brazilian President was to jump in two other social media platforms, Bluesky and Meta, the later from a big tech and not even opened his account to those who use Activity Pub.</p><p>I think it's a good opportunity to discuss the role of big techs on disinformation campaigns that can mine democracies, but we should be more careful on our letters. Mainly if you want to be taken seriously against such big players.</p><p><a href="https://framaforms.org/public-letter-against-big-techs-attack-on-digital-sovereignties-1726420881" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">framaforms.org/public-letter-a</span><span class="invisible">gainst-big-techs-attack-on-digital-sovereignties-1726420881</span></a></p><p><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/sovereignty" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>sovereignty</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/BigTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>BigTech</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/x" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>x</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/farright" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>farright</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/disinformation" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>disinformation</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/actibitypub" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>actibitypub</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Brazil" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Brazil</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/lula" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>lula</span></a></p>
