Bravo to the Spanish Supreme Court for its Sept 2025 decision establishing four important principles: "[1] Access to source code can be needed to verify automated government decisions;
[2] “Intellectual property rights” do not automatically block transparency; [3] Security concerns must be balanced against democratic accountability; and [4] Transparency is especially critical for systems affecting social rights."

@petersuber @fsfe the ones that made it are here too and (sometimes) post their news in English: @civio .
