I think large social networks should verify users. It's like getting a driver's licence. If you don't want to verify your identity, you can, but you won't see content from unverified individuals and your content won't be visible to others.
The only problem is implementation. We need a system that chooses what data to transfer (name and age) and how.
Everything we write on open social networks should be something we can say on the street.

“We must also allow Ukraine to exercise its legitimate defence with long-range weapons to strike military targets on Russian territory and strengthen sanctions, including a ban on Russian oil imports in January and gas imports at the end of 2026. The end of this story cannot be Trump acquitting Putin; the end must be Putin sitting in the dock at the International Criminal Court."

Urgent Call for EU Legislative Protection of Core Internet Security Infrastructure
A letter from our General Manager @f0r573r
Many cultures, one Union.
Europe's living cultural #heritage is more than just our past—it's our inspiration for the future.
This is why we celebrate it every year at the European Cultural Heritage Summit, running in Bucharest 🇷🇴 until tomorrow!
Heritage professionals from all over the 🇪🇺 have gathered to find adequate responses to the climate crisis.
Our culture is what brings us together as people. We’re united in diversity.

🚗🏍️🚴♂️🏃♀️🚶♂️ Safer roads by 2030: where are we?
In 2023, the EU saw a 1% decrease in road fatalities, with 20,400 lives lost – a 10% drop since 2019, but still an unacceptable number.
This is not enough to reach our target. We need to bring this number down to 11,400 by 2030 and to zero by 2050.
While we see some positive developments in some EU countries, we need more efforts on all levels to make our roads safer for everyone.
Today, we found that X should not be designated as a core platform service under the Digital Markets Act.
We concluded that X does not qualify given that our investigation revealed that X is not an important gateway for business users to reach end users.
We will continue to monitor the developments in the market concerning this service should any substantial changes arise.

This week, the Council of the EU has taken a significant step toward equality by adopting our proposals to enhance the rights of millions of people with disabilities.
Here’s how they will make a real difference:

🌐 Another major step in boosting the cyber resilience of Europe’s critical digital infrastructure.
Today, we have adopted the first implementing rules on the cybersecurity of critical entities and networks under the NIS2 Directive.
The act:
📋 details cybersecurity risk management measures;
🚨 specifies cases in which an incident should be considered significant and should be reported by digital infrastructure and service providers to national authorities.

# How many lines of code to show our love for coders?
print("Just one: 🇪🇺 ❤️ 👨💻👩💻")
On #WorldCodingDay, we celebrate your passion and commitment to code an innovative, open digital society.
We are here to help with:
🔹 The Digital Markets Act, ensuring fair access to essential platform services and promoting interoperability.
🔸 The Digital Services Act, protecting your fundamental rights online.
Europe's new digital rulebook is the source code.
You are the compiler that brings it to life.
App Store, Apple Arcade, Music, iTunes Store, Books and Podcasts.
Following a coordinated investigation at the European level, we are calling on Apple to stop geo-blocking practices on Apple Media Services.
Their limitations unlawfully discriminate against European consumers based on their residence, including online access, payment methods and downloading.
Apple has one month to reply to the CPC Network’s findings and propose commitments on addressing them.
🎫 Hotels, car rental companies, and other travel service providers relying on Booking.com can begin enjoying new opportunities.
As of today, the online intermediation service must comply with all relevant obligations of the Digital Markets Act.
This means EU businesses can be free to differentiate prices and conditions on any online sales channel they wish to use.
The DMA ensures contestable and fair markets in the digital sector.
