The wrong dataset can be lethal; using AI without context in a conflict can escalate it. But can technology lead in the opposite direction? Join us to debate it: okfn.org/en/events/th...

When the AI bubble pops, we can’t repeat past corporate bail outs. We need to be ready with policies that protect ordinary people and hold tech execs accountable. We also need to talk about nationalizing AI companies — or maybe even abolishing them altogether… @astra.bsky.social @theguardian.com

✨ Irina Bolychevsky @shevski.bsky.social join us at the #OKFN100 project to discuss the less-told part of #CKAN's 20-year history: how a small open-source project became the default for government open data (+1,000 portals in over 60 countries). 👉🏾 Read the interview: buff.ly/6Bhiru7

I wrote a couple of paragraphs on what I think it is THE problem to solve in the internet today: content discoverability. Not proposing anything yet, but the first step is identifying and admiting the problem. pdelboca.me/writings/202...

Found this amazing little story from @itsfoss.bsky.social about a small logistics company in Italy migrating to Linux that I think is worth sharing! itsfoss.com/linux-storie... I can see lots of SMEs in Spain that would benefit from similar help... (via @pietroppeter.bsky.social on LinkedIn)
If anything good can come up from LLMs in coding is the ditch of frameworks if favor of stacks closer to the platform itself. On the web landscape I see no reason to keep investing in bloated frameworks when we can be using HTML, WebComponents, modern CSS, etc. shopify.engineering/back-to-native

Shopify, Stripe, Dell Technologies, Block, Cloudflare, Dropbox, Coinbase, OpenClaw, and TapTap. All companies that have given millions of dollars to a project run by a far-right white nationalist. Why are we okay with this? brennan.day/normalized-f...

The US State Department has designated A/I, a small Italian provider of open source infrastructure for political activists, as a global terrorist group. They will reach into our very homes to grab us — if we let them. www.state.gov/releases/off...

Activists damage the building foundations of data centre 🫡 > The group said that they threw water balloons filled with a mixture of hydrogen peroxide, acetic acid, salt, and acrylic paint at the under-construction facility.

This is excellent! Internet Archive is exactly the kind of org that we need on Eurosky. @eurosky.social @modalfoundation.eurosky.social
Where your data lives matters. We've moved our Bluesky account to a European Personal Data Server hosted by Eurosky. Same profile, same content, different infrastructure. A small step towards a more decentralized, resilient, and publicly accountable web. www.internetarchive.eu/2026/06/12/b...

A new European microblogging app? Used to be the case that meant starting all over again. Not this time: I just logged in with the same @eurosky.social account I use for @bsky.app and it works. Starting to see the potential of decentralised socials.
Muve to the beat. Muve the conversation. Muve mountains. Today @eurosky.social announces mu.social, a new microblogging app to experiment with the future of social! 🪩💖
Can we stop calling X a "social media"? Why is it still a thing? Why are we allowing it? www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026...

“The time for dialogue with these people is long gone.” @robin.berjon.com’s opening talk is a call to action to build collective power in opposition to extractive big tech. #pubconf2026
We had/have the same frustration while trying to explain that LLM outputs are also editorial. That LLMs are trained and programmed to answer in a specific way. Access to information is being monopolized, we are living in dangerous times.
This one point is proving remarkably challenging to get across: ALGORITHMIC FEEDS ARE EDITORIAL You wouldn't expect to do well pitching your ideas to a newspaper or TV that hates you. Why expect anything better from X or Insta, which are openly authoritarian media?

📣 We won the European Press Prize Innovation Award. 🎉 Our investigation 'Mole or cancer?' revealed how an AI tool entering Spain's public health system misses 1 in 3 melanomas — and was trained almost entirely on white patients. Thank you. Proud of this work, and the team behind it.

We need to make and shape our own AI systems, and they will only be ours if they are shaped by the data of social movements, of our historical struggles, and of the bits of knowledge not captured by the mainstream narrative. Join us! Help us! Let´s knit the future of our past, together!
🗄️ ✨ Many documentation centres are barely surviving these days. Digitisation 𝙘𝙤𝙪𝙡𝙙 be an answer. But where to start? How to take advantage of the inevitable AI? That's the #AILearningLabs discussion next week with AVANCSO. Join us! 👉🏾 buff.ly/E6Crbx7
