Hassen und teilen - Was Wut im Netz mit uns macht

#Apple again weaponises its dominant market position and influence over millions of users to undermine a democratically enacted law in Europe:

Rumour has it that the #gatekeeper might rather disable its WiFi sync functionality than make it interoperable with competitors, as it's obliged to under the EU #DigitalMarketsAct.

Let me guess: next thing they'll complain again how the #DMA makes Apple products worse.

Bei der ZEIT hat sich jetzt jemand "ganz grundsätzlich" mit Rezo angelegt.

Ich vermute mal, dass das nicht gut ausgehen wird für die ZEIT (inhaltlich), aber beiden Seiten gesteigerte Reichweite bringt.

Ebenfalls wie immer halt: Altes Establishment VS. Neues Establishment.

Ich möchte aber nicht leugnen, dass mir das großes Vergnügen bereitet und ich das daher sehr gerne zusätzlich, künstlich anheize...🤪

While @fsfe is fighting #Apple's non-compliance with the #DMA in the European Court Justice (@Curia), the folks over at @Freiheitsrechte and @article19 just submitted a formal complaint against the #gatekeeper at the @EUCommission 💪 :heart_cyber: 🔥

Now enforcement please 🙏

#EU is a sellout to #Microsoft. The only way to go is to raise awareness like in the #endof10 campaign. The rest is politics, and in that game money's a heavy weight #gatekeeper.

Es gibt bei Niedersulz im Weinviertel ein Museumsdorf. Es präsentiert das Leben der Menschen im Weinviertel und Südmähren in alten Zeiten. In diesen Zeiten gab es auch viele Tiere rund um die Bauernhöfe und diese sind hier Teil des lebendigen Museums. Hier sieht man den Ziegenbock als den Goatkeeper mitsamt seiner Sippe im Hintergrund.

О пакетах в экосистеме Apple (часть 1)

Всем привет! Меня зовут Эрик, я работаю инженером технической поддержки в компании Ринго. Это первая часть статьи о пакетах (packages, которые у нас часто так и называют “пэкиджи”) в экосистеме Apple. В этом материале мы разберём, как устанавливаются приложения в macOS, чем отличаются форматы DMG и PKG и подробно рассмотрим устройство установочных пакетов. Мы изучим их структуру, роль Gatekeeper , затронем цифровую подпись и нотаризацию, а также изучим способы инспектирования пакетов перед установкой. Все темы будут подкреплены примерами, чтобы материал был понятен и полезен. Если вам интересно — поехали! 🚀

@aleksandrayulia @fdroidorg The EC mostly definitely care about this a lot. When fighting trillion dollar companies with a staff of 20 people, nothing will happen fast. It is important to set reasonable expectations here. Also, the #gatekeeper companies have such massive monopoly profits, they can afford to spend billions fighting all legal efforts to curtail their power. We have a chance here because well crafted technical replies are many orders of magnitude more effective than their tricks

@adbenitez @aleksandrayulia @fdroidorg Both #Apple and #Google have been designated gatekeepers under the #DigitalMarketsAct, they both must open up. If we want the #EuropeanCommission to address our concerns, we must help them as much as possible. They are 20 working on #DMA vs #GAFAM/#Tiktok market cap of many trillions. Plus they have massive #monopoly profits.

It turns out that technical ground truth provides us with an amazing ability to pop their legal strategies.

Dr. Todd Grande on YouTube use the term "transgender ideology" to explain motivation to Charlie Kirk's murder! How professional is that for a so-called expert in the mental health field?

There is no "transgender ideology" and even the term "gender ideology" is a rhetorical construct used by opponents of ITQBLG equality to falsely frame transgender and nonbinary identities as a political movement or belief system rather than an intrinsic aspect of some human beings. This term was never used by transgender people and is widely recognized as a misleading and harmful label designed to de-legitimize these people existence and dehumanize transgender individuals.

As for "gender ideology" it is a term frequently used by anti-ITQBLG activists and 'social' media to discredit transgender people by implying their identity is a manufactured political agenda rather than a genuine personal experience.

The term "gender ideology" has been traced back to conservative groups in the 1990s and is used to promote discriminatory legislation and social stigma against transgender and nonbinary people.

I won't apologize to put the (ITQBLG) letters in the descending order of societal oppression.

The last decades growing visibility of transgender and nonbinary people was never caused by any ideologies, but by an obviously now past social 'tolerance' (which is not acceptance).

The historical and valid existence of non cisgender-normative folks (who can have different ideologies) should not be up for endless debate.

As of September 21, 2025, the term "gender ideology"; and more recently "transgender ideology" as Dr. Todd Grande give title to his video, continues to be weaponized in political discourse, specially by right-wing commentators and organizations, specially in the USA, to justify restrictions on transgender rights and vilification of trans* or non-binary people.

Dr. Todd Grande is only spreading more hatred and social stigma towards already marginalized demographics.

I wouldn't be surprised to witness more trans* or enbie people loosing their temper when facing legislation pressed against them and confronted by the daily dose of ignorance, bigotry, social ostracism or/and violence to deal with in everyday life of a now fascist nation.

Isn't it professional and extremely compassionate for a mental well-being "expert", Mister Grande?

Sadly covering true crime and closely covering current events to exploit the YouTube algorithm brings Todd Grande way more viewers than the very few genuine clinical psychologists analyzing the analyzer and so debunking the truth about this misleading pseudo-medical doctor.

Android Developer Verification means any developer or organization that wants to publish a mobile app now has to comply with either #Apple's or #Google's Terms of Service. That means two US companies now have a say in the apps that our governments make for their citizens, around the world.

Spent a few hours cleaning out the fridge on my M1 Mac Mini today. It’s now in an ok state and can resume its local server role. But man, there’s zero joy in using macOS anymore. Just paper cut after paper cut. Or should I say joy in using OS X? I guess that’s when it actually was nice to use. Even with the limitations, iOS feels less claustrophobic – perhaps because it never had the freedom to begin with, so you don’t run into all the restrictions in the same way. I got the Mac because it was a friendly face on *nix back in the 10.0.3 days. These days, though, the face looks more like the one in Apple’s 1984 ad. The one on the big screen, that is. #Apple #GateKeeper #macOS #OSX
