  What could go wrong if you give Meta access to your bank account and shopping platforms? Beyond security, what about privacy and not feeding the monster? #AI #shopping #privacy #cybersecurity https://www.foxbusiness.com/video/6405725098112

  Do AI-narrated videos really drive sales on Kickstarter? As a none native speaker, I understand not wanting to put pronunciation issues on display, yet these AI videos lack any warmth and genuineness #AI #sales

  Microsoft's argument in South Africa is interesting because they acknowledge what sovereignty is. Yet, in the next step, they say you should treat sovereignty as an absolute, but as a sliding scale, which would move Azure from "no" to "court order needed." #digitalsovereignty https://iafrica.com/microsoft-sets-out-a-six-part-definition-of-digital-sovereignty-to-south-african-officials/

  Billionaires brief the UN on the need to regulate them. Why not members of civil society? Climate scientists? Laid-off people? Instead, the first chance to influence goes to people who don't want regulations. #AI #leadership https://www.reuters.com/business/ai-leaders-brief-un-amid-warnings-technology-could-slip-beyond-human-control-2026-09-23/

  We often talk about the big IT projects migrating to Open Source. Yet it's just as important to talk about a 5-person office finding its way to Open Source. #opensource #migration https://itsfoss.com/linux-stories/italian-logistics-company-migration/

  It's an interesting perspective that US AI companies are only calling for a slowdown because everyone else is catching up. Whether true, time will tell. #AI #politics https://wkzo.com/2026/09/18/europes-ai-firms-playing-catch-up-challenge-us-calls-for-slowdown/

  Who would have expected Alphabet to put loopholes into the AI safety laws it writes? Truly shocking. In other news, NPR discovered how big tech companies have "helped" shape regulation for the past 3 decades. #AI #regulation #lobbying https://www.npr.org/2026/09/18/nx-s1-5968878/ai-chatbots-safety-regulation-google

  We have the worst PISA results ever, despite all the tech and testing that have entered schools. Yet, we are still trying to find out whether more tech will solve the issue. How about just hitting a reset button on tech, teaching, and parent engagement? #education #tech #AI https://www.unc.edu/posts/2026/09/14/ai-research-to-improve-k-12-stem-learning-gets-funding-boost/

  It's sad how malware is targeting community projects around Open Source software. Yet, it might also be a good reminder, that we should be more conscious when ending projects and not just let them fade away into obsolescence. #opensoure #cybersecurity https://www.opensourceforu.com/2026/08/malware-wave-forces-arch-linux-to-suspend-aur-package-adoptions/

  China's rise in providing Open Source AI isn't just putting the US's technological leadership into doubt. It's a challenge to our financial and business system. After all, why pay a premium for an OpenAI IPO if China can make a better solution for cheaper? #AI #business https://www.iris-france.org/en/chinas-ai-rise-open-source-diplomacy-and-engineering-culture/

  Misinformation is shaping the digital sovereignty debate, but most claims don’t hold up. Open Source, decentralization, and real-world IT experience tell a different story: more control, not less. Time to separate narrative from reality. #digitalsovereigny #opensource https://www.korte.co/2026/07/30/attacking-digital-sovereignty-one-lie-at-a-time/

  How many analytics and advertising companies can you actually share your website data with? I just ran across a cookie banner listing over 2,000 different partner companies, including over 1,000 advertising networks and 300 analytics companies. #dataprotection

  A few days old, but it's fascinating that Ireland is now jumping onto digital sovereignty, especially as it's home to most US tech companies' European or global operations. #digitalsovereignty https://www.theregister.com/public-sector/2026/07/22/ireland-stalls-1b-microsoft-tender-amid-digital-sovereignty-questions/5276149

  It's time to talk about AI costs. With rising costs and spiraling prices, it's time to focus on business problems instead of big tech Names. Most of the problems you can better solve with Open Source. #AI #opensource

  Sovereign AI is no longer a slogan. For many countries, the push is becoming a reality. South Korea’s latest AI buildout shows how quickly digital sovereignty is becoming a real infrastructure and policy decision.

  I love how Indonesia mentions education as key to achieving digital sovereignty. After all, you cannot control tech if you cannot understand it. Thus, technical education is as important as Open Source software in giving people back control over their digital lives. #digitalsovereignty https://en.antaranews.com/news/423869/indonesia-seeks-ai-sovereignty-through-local-models-digital-talent

  Cloud dependency is an interesting word to describe many businesses and organizations. What I like about it is that it turns a risk management failure into a technical problem. Thus, it might be easier to overcome, as fewer people get blamed for it. #digitalsovereignty #cloud https://www.thinkdigitalpartners.com/news/2026/07/23/government-must-tackle-cloud-dependencies-says-digital-sovereignty-expert/

  So, US AI companies try to get the Trump administration to ban Open Source models every 3-5 months. That's an extraordinary admission that OpenAI and co. are hard-pressed to produce tech with a better value proposition. #opensource #AI #politics https://www.axios.com/2026/07/20/ai-us-china-open-source-kimi
