Well that sucks. > The EDPS pilot project of EU Voice and EU Video has proved that public bodies, like EUIs, can offer social media platforms that respect individuals’ fundamental rights > Unfortunately, despite our efforts to find a new home for EU Voice and EU Video in other EUIs, we have been unable to secure new ownership to maintain the servers and sustain operations at the high standards that EUIs and our users deserve 9 comments

@alberto_cottica yes, that's how I am reading it. Which is really crap.

With 100K followers + what looks like high engagement + we know it's not a fake account via the instance... It seems like a mistake. 😔

@rysiek I think we should start a petition. I tried but I can't get through the preliminary questions. Looks like I need to find 1 million people first or something? Its confusing, @EU_Commission

@gunchleoc That's for legislative proposals usually. There's always some ongoing consultation you can use though, for example right now https://citizens.ec.europa.eu/participation/processes/tackling-hatred-in-society/f/39/?toggle_translations=true seems active.

I've added a quick proposal to strengthen #EUvoice, with a link to @homegrown for the juice. You can vote for it or add your own.

@rysiek Surely there has to be some internal body that runs PR for the EU that can take over running the servers day to day and the same contractors that did operations for the pilot can carry on as normal. My impression was that it was basically treated as a one way operation anyway and the rest of us were just a comments section so the EUI could just set it and forget it |

@rysiek does this mean the social.network.europa.eu instance is being shut down? @EU_Commission
