Die wunderbare @_elena fasst den #wsocial Hype mal ein wenig zusamnen, bei dem, wie schon bei #eurosky , nicht viel uebrig bleibt, wenn man die Maske runterreisst.
Unter dem Deckmantel der Souveraenitaet verkauft auch W Social zentralisierte Ideen... jetzt sogar ohne die Moeglichkeit diese anonym zu nutzen.
Do you remember the surprise announcement of a new social network in Davos this past January? Something that promised to be the "first" European social network?
Its name is #WSocial and it's a fork of #Bluesky. Its founders have ties with European politicians - but there is no official involvement by the EU.
You wouldn't know any of this from media reports because they all rehashed their talking points. So I wrote a post about it, dispelling some myths:
