Still thinking about the socialization talk at #CablesOfResistance last week, and the idea in Germany (specifically around Die Linke?) to socialize/nationalize Big Tech platforms.
1) It's neat that this has been in the German constitution all this time!
2) The phrase 'take them over and make them into a penguin' (i.e. more like Linux) is pretty charming
Anyways, all power to comrades in Berlin working towards socializing housing stocks. May you succeed and create a big precedent...

@Aepasek I still think about this one, too. Wondering what would be good areas to try this out additionally. I guess evaluating to what degree we actually need digital solutions in the first place (to escape the tech-solutionism that was mentioned so much as well) is one part. And then I thought it might be cool to work with existing analog cooperative structures and their identified digital needs and see if they would support/fund cooperative digital offerings (for their own benefit).
