The new European regulation aims to protect the secrecy of journalistic sources, the key concept at the heart of journalism, but actually risks legitimising its systematic violation

Furthermore, the Council proposes that the legitimate use of surveillance and in particular of spyware be extended to dozens of other crimes, including minor crimes such as copyright infringements. > > > > Among the countries promoting this pejorative draft we find Germany and France - countries producing Spyware technology - but also Greece, a country where surveillance abuses against journalists have become a topic of national relevance. > > > >

I love that I'm seeing more and more posts to Lemmy from Mastodon.
  • When you write from Friendica (or another social network) to post on Lemmy, you must respect some basic rules.

    Here I tried to write a handbook (in Italian) to help users write posts that have a readable title and work well

    Furthermore, as regards the titles, you must take into account that Lemmy only interprets up to 200 characters; when exceeding 200 characters, the title is truncated. To count the characters, however, you have to consider the BBCode characters of the source text, which are converted into Markdown in Lemmy. So you have to be careful that "marked" text strings don't end up at the 200th character! Here are some additional notes:
