"EU lawmakers call for a separate European network following the Grok scandal.
More than 50 EU parliamentarians have addressed an open letter to the European Commission, urging it to invest in European alternatives to US networks like X."

As an American, very enthusiastic for EU folks to hurry up on #techsovereignty efforts by supporting #opensource software, open protocols and platforms.
Getting more/all EU electeds, staff and orgs on Mastodon and the #fediverse is one step among many.
Only @npub1k2l…dvmj among EU electeds and staff is on Mastodon, and that's not even listed on her bio page.
Over 400 EU electeds, staff, orgs are on X/Twitter.
Only 14 are on Bluesky.
Only 6 are on Threads.
