On my own time, I have to read a ~50 page document produced for the #EuropeanCommission in order to effectively participate in a two hour meeting where #FDroid is pitted against #BigTech on the #DigitalMarketsAct and its requirements around installing and allowing other #AppStore options.
Its all NDA'ed so I can't ask for help.
This game is really rigged for the megacorps. Wish me luck! Here's to fighting the good fight!

@hub yeah, crazy isn't it? I think they made it NDA'ed so the mega corps would participate. Plus I think its just EC habit: commission work from big consultancies, which do NDA and corporate think by default.

here (Canada) they set some of the telecom policies based on confidential submissions from the telecartel. And the worse is when one of them say "sorry can I refile ? I didn't realize I could inflate numbers that much until I read my competitors"

It's to set wholesale telecom tariff. Whatever you pay in Europe for telecom we pay more.

So yeah. Not unique to the EC.
