After the lightning talk today about the #DMA Interoperability Survey, tomorrow weβre having a deep dive Q&A session about #DeviceNeutrality, #FreeSoftware and what the #DigitalMarketaAct has to do with that.
ποΈ Day 3 (29.12)
π Bits&BΓ€ume Living Room (Hall H)
β° 14:00 - 14:50
Stop by if you want to learn more about what we (@fsfe) are doing to fight for interoperability and to hold Big Tech accountable to the #DMA rules.
Looking forward to seeing you there πΎπΈ
Your whole internet traffic, encryption, backups, communication, shopping, writings, business interaction, and so on are transferred through your router. If your router is not free, your digital freedom is likely to be compromised.
π₯ Check out our #RouterFreedom tech wiki, which collects information on how to use a different modem or router from your internet provider.

Sending good vibes from #sfscon. #DeviceNeutrality is more important than ever. Happy to see so many people talking about it.
Of course, also a great opportunity to talk about #interoperability !

π£ Hey, #Google "disable" Google apps is not "uninstalling" them. You can't dodge the EUβs #DMA rules by redefining language.
π Thanks to @fsfe and allies, a complaint has been filed to stop this abuse and protect user freedom.

Hey Google: don't be evil! π We will keep protecting #softwarefreedom and #deviceneutrality for all users!

Looking forward to meet many from the @nextcloud community on Sunday at the #NextcloudConf25! Will give a lightning talk about "Letβs spark childrenβs interest in coding" and be around to talk about #softwarefreedom and the @fsfe's work as well.
On Saturday my awesome co-workers @llas and @dario will be there as well to talk with #nextcloud contributors about #DeviceNeutrality and get feedback for our work in front of the European Court of Justice to keep #Apple accountable under the #DMA.
π The Digital Markets Act #DMA turns 1! Since its approval #Google, #Apple & all gatekeepers must:
πΉAllow competing app stores
πΈNot discriminate against browsers & search engines
πΉAllow uninstallation of pre-installed apps
πΈProvide free-of-charge interoperability
π But weβre not done! #DeviceNeutrality, the freedom to uninstall, install & control any software on any device still faces hurdles
πͺ With @edri we submitted our contribution to the @EUCommission consultation

π£ Is "disable" the same as "uninstall"? We do not believe it. Google does.
Under the DMA, the FSFE with a coalition of civil-society organisations prompts the @EUCommission to open proceedings to investigate Alphabet's (#Google) regarding the uninstallation of pre-installed apps in Android.
Uninstalling is completely removing the app, not just disabling it! This is key for #DeviceNeutrality!

Yes, we had to file a DMA complaint to the @EUCommission because #Google believes that disabling = uninstalling.
Under the #DMA, gatekeepers must allow users to uninstall apps, which, of course, means the complete removal of an app, not its disabling. This is key for #DeviceNeutrality.
