If the #EU is serious about #digitalsovereignty and #privacy, #Mastodon is a meaningful step, but also a delicate one.

Supporting the #fediverse shouldn’t mean centralising it, capturing it, or over-regulating it. The real challenge is to fund capacity, standards, and sustainability without undermining #decentralization, pluralism, or community governance.

Good morning from New York, the global stage is set!

At UN Open Source Week, we bring a unique perspective: institutional experience in investing in open digital infrastructure for the public good.

The Sovereign Tech Agency is more than a voice in the room, our organization is a blueprint for action. Digital sovereignty depends on global collaboration. Let’s make this week count.

#UNOpenSourceWeek #PublicDigitalInfrastructure

Beyond disruptive tech: How the EU's next budget can build better #PublicDigitalInfrastructure and support practical solutions that serve public needs 🇪🇺
