GDMR: this one simple regulation could end surveillance capitalism in the EU

GDMR: The regulation EU citizens deserve. No, you didn’t misread it and, no, it’s not a typo. GDMR – the General Data Minimisation Regulation – can end surveillance capitalism in the EU. The problem is that no such regulation exists.

We call our representatives to support #FreeSoftware in public administrations because:
🔸We need software that fosters the sharing of good ideas & solutions
🔹We need software that guarantees freedom of choice, access, & competition
🔸We need software that helps public administrations regain full control of their critical digital infrastructure

#Free Software allows public administrations to become digitally sovereign!

#NHS should reverse course and implement "Public Money? Public Code!”. Others must not copy this mistake.
