I can't sign this as I am not a constituent of the EU, but I hope this comes to pass and the EU forces some responsibility into the #tech corporations. Goodness knows the US isn't going to lead the way.

I'm going to #boost this a bit, to at least broaden its reach. Likes/favorites don't play into an algorithm here (thank goodness) and don't help visibility, and not all servers are federated (and some federated feeds are firehoses anyway).

@bookstodon, if you're tired of having to throw out still perfectly working #tech that suffers #PlannedObsolescence only because the closed-system software bricks them, check out this #petition.

Same to artists everywhere, @Curator.

Any trojan, malware and spyware deserves the right to be installed anywhere!

This kind of rights we are talking about? 😂

Very much in favour of this, but not in the EU (anymore). What about the rest of the world?
