@Marloezovic@mastodon.nl @_elena@mastodon.social @EUCommission@ec.social-network.europa.eu @robin@mastodon.social My hypothesis: this is all about identity verification, supposedly to “address child abuse”. The fact that the president of EU Parliament is asking the EU Council to override a decision by the EU Parliament is very telling: https://www.politico.eu/article/president-vs-parliament-roberta-metsola-overrides-meps-bid-force-child-abuse-law/
Side effect: it will kill Mastodon.
