What Europeans really think about tech

What Europeans really think about tech
IT'S MONDAY, AND THIS IS DIGITAL POLITICS. I'm Mark Scott, and you find me this week splitting my time between Berlin and Brussels. As we hurtle toward the end of 2025, this is my current permanent state of mind. Almost there, folks.

— What are Europeans' views on digital policymaking? I teamed up with YouGov, the polling firm, to find out.

— The United States latest National Security Strategy reaffirms a step change in how Washington approaches tech.

— A litany of recent trade deals highlights how US officials are linking digital policymaking with access to the American market.

Let's get started:

One thing I started worrying about is the first non-MAGA person eventually elected/instated President of the United States not walking back all of Trump's petty executive orders to avoid rocking the boat too much, like the stupid ballroom, the gaudy White House golds, the "Department of War" renaming, etc...

And now you can worry about it too!

"Finché considereremo avere uno smartphone come sinonimo di inclusione digitale continueremo a raccontarci una storia comoda. Ma falsa.

Durante la pandemia uno studio del governo britannico scoprì l’ovvio: i dispositivi mobili sono meno efficaci per l’apprendimento rispetto ai computer. Inoltre gli studenti delle famiglie povere, con solo smartphone e dati limitati, sono rimasti indietro.

Quelli delle famiglie ricche, con pc e banda larga, hanno invece retto il ritmo."

premesso che io preferisco accedere a Mastodon con il browser del telefono, ti confermo che "l'app ufficiale" non ti permette di visualizzare la timeline federata!

Del resto, lo scopo di quell'app (che è oggettivamente ben fatta) è farti iscrivere al server di mastodon.social e di fartici restare dentro 😈

Stranger Things always features songs that were popular at the time the story is taking place

and it starts in 1983, but the story has reached 1987

Early signs are claims that there would be a mass exodus of the rich from New York if Zohran Mamdani won the NY Mayoral election were, as we likely all suspected, nonsense;

Rather, the rich seem to have been recommitting to leases on homes on Manhattan according to available property records for the last month.

While the rich may worry about leftist agendas, they also have many more reasons *not* to move - from social networks to their children's education.

Last night, russia launched a massive attack on Dnipro and the surrounding region, killing one civilian and injuring five others, including two children.


This is what Okhtyrka in Sumy Oblast endured last night.

Russia attacked the town with drones, hitting an apartment building. Seven people were injured, and dozens lost their homes.

Hedy Lamarr (1914–2000), celebre attrice hollywoodiana, fu anche un’importante inventrice. Durante la Seconda guerra mondiale co-progettò un sistema di comunicazione a spettro diffuso per guidare siluri evitando intercettazioni, anticipando principi di Wi-Fi e Bluetooth. Sebbene ignorato all’epoca, il brevetto ebbe grande impatto. Lamarr divenne simbolo di ingegno e ispirò molte donne nelle discipline scientifiche.

A Russian Su-34 crew died after the ejection system unexpectedly activated while the aircraft was parked in a shelter, according to Russian aviation affiliated channel Fighterbomber. Both the pilot and navigator sustained fatal injuries. A state commission is investigating the incident.


Russia attacked Okhtyrka in Sumy region with three drones, one struck a residential building, injuring seven civilians. Emergency crews are on-site. In Chernihiv, another drone exploded near an apartment block, injuring three more, one of whom was hospitalized. Firefighters have extinguished a gas fire caused by the blast.


Trump says he’s disappointed Zelensky still hasn’t read the proposed peace plan, claiming “his team likes it, but he hasn’t looked at it yet.” Trump added that Russia is “basically on board,” though he noted, “Russia would probably prefer to take the whole country.” Whether Zelensky will accept the terms, Trump says, remains unclear.


Ukraine’s air defense forces shot down or suppressed 131 drones overnight, out of 149 launched from multiple directions. Most were Shahed-type drones. Hits were recorded at 11 locations, and debris fell in 4 more.

«La libertà di espressione è un valore essenziale, ma non tutte le parole sono uguali.

L’apologia di fascismo, nazismo o ideologie che giustificano odio e violenza non è libertà di pensiero è un attacco alla libertà stessa.

La storia ci ha già mostrato cosa accade quando l’odio trova legittimità politica e culturale.

Difendere la libertà di espressione significa anche difendere i limiti che servono a preservarla.»

Ho raggiunto quella soglia d'età che se devo chinarmi a terra, quando mi rialzo dico "oplà".
in reply to Paga Base

pffft, principiante. Io ormai dico "oplà" anche quando tiro fuori le mani dalle tasche dei pantaloni.



#Poland police arrested three #Ukraine citizens (aged 39–43) in the center of Warsaw who were traveling in a car equipped with:

  • advanced hacking equipment,
  • a spy device detector,
  • SIM cards, routers, FLIPPER, antennas,
  • laptops, cameras, and portable drives.

The seized devices could have been used to breach security and interfere with strategic IT systems. That resembles a bit the arrest of #GRU officers in #Netherlands in 2018 while they tried to hack #OPCW corporate network. This of course could be regular cyber criminals or pentesters, but I’d say these days this kind of jobs would display certain lack of self-preservation instinct in each case.

P.S. “Ukraine citizens” is essentially holder of passport of Ukraine, doesn’t tell you anything of nationality or political affiliation.

in reply to kravietz 🦇

More details from - of course - Polish official profiles on Twitter (sorry):

Polish police officers in Warsaw detained three Ukrainian citizens traveling with advanced hacking equipment and spy device detectors. Stopped for a routine traffic control, the men explained they were IT specialists traveling across Europe and arrived in Poland just hours earlier.


Both GRU and cybercrime sounds equally plausible.

in reply to kravietz 🦇

Just to be clear - I was personally doing #wardriving in Warsaw like ~15 years ago, all legitimate and and part of official security assessment. I can imagine doing it today, but I would be 100% sure to have three notarised copies of customer contract and all other available credentials on hand, especially if I was doing it abroad… This bit seems to be clearly missing here.


⚡️ WAR IN UKRAINE & RUSSIA — DEC 8, 2025

■ Engagements below the 7-day average and the lowest casualties since October 27
■ 9th-highest drone losses to date, with relatively few land-based equipment losses
■ Overnight attacks: triple-digit, all drones; decent interception rate, but 15 locations hit or affected by debris
■ 🇷🇺 air strikes above average, but MLRS ones well below; the 30-day 🇷🇺/🇺🇦 strike ratio drops again but still quite high

Zelensky confirmed that Umerov and Gen. Hnatov are en route to Europe from the U.S., where they’ve been engaged in backchannel peace talks. He expects a full briefing, especially on what the Americans conveyed from their Moscow contacts and which negotiation points the U.S. is now willing to adjust. Zelensky also noted his recent call with Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner was “constructive but difficult.” Key follow-up meetings are planned in London and Brussels.

Apparently Threads has also implemented a post quote feature.

I say “apparently” because posts seen through fedi-link only have “RE:” followed by *absolutely nothing*, but if you use the Threads app and open the same post, it has the expected embedded (quoted) post.

Not sure where the breakdown is, but I’m betting that Threads is not using the same APIs as native Mastodon instances.

Driving me nuts, but getting those folks to abandon Threads for a true Mastodon instance just won’t happen: “but my followers!”

Sadly, granite4:350m #LLM is missing the point a bit in jobs like “generate a title of less than 120 characters long”. It just generates titles of random length 😄
