1/🧵#EU: Criteria for assessing when someone is labelled a "potential terrorist or violent extremist threat" has been finalised by member states–which may facilitate the monitoring, #surveillance and restriction of political activities and #activists.
They say the goal of the new criteria “is to promote entering such individuals into the European databases and information systems"
#EU#AI#AIAct#Copyright#TDM: "This policy brief further develops the ideas expressed in our previous policy brief on this topic in light of the copyright provisions of the AI Act. Article 53(1c) of the AI Act requires providers of general-purpose AI models to implement policies to comply with EU copyright law, particularly, with the machine-readable opt-outs from the text and data mining (TDM) exception. This new Open Future policy brief explores what such a compliance policy might look like in practice. It provides an overview of the technical standards and services that are available to implement rights holders’ opt-outs in a way that is effective, scalable, and able to meet the needs of both rights holders and AI model developers.
The brief argues that to achieve this goal, four different aspects of machine-readable opt-outs require further attention: the identifiers for works, the vocabulary for opt-outs, the infrastructure used to communicate and respect opt-outs, and the effect of an opt-out once it has been recorded. For each of these four areas, there is a need to build consensus and converge on solutions that work for all stakeholders."
👨💼: Hello this is the market surveillance authority for the #EU#AIAct, how can we help?
🤦♀️: Hi, I'd like to report an AI system. I just turned it on this morning and it's only gone and violated several of my fundamental rights.
👨💼: Sorry to hear that, how bad is the damage?
🤦♀️ : Pretty bad. There's smoke coming out of Article 7 and I can see it's infringed all down the side of Article 10. I'm not even going to look at Article 11 without my safety goggles.
#Ukraine needs more long-range weapons to fight off Russian advances in the northern #Kharkiv region where the situation around the country's second-largest city remains "highly dramatic"
It is important to cut off Russian supply routes and give Ukraine weapons "that can be used over medium and long distances," Annalena #Baerbock said on the sidelines of a meeting of the foreign ministers in Strasbourg.
"We are also working with other partners on this."

Nach wie vor beklagen kritische Stimmen, das #Europaparlament habe im Vergleich zu den Mitgliedsstaaten und der Kommission wenig Entscheidungsgewalt. Dennoch ist sein Handlungsspielraum in den letzten Jahren gestiegen, wie , wie der European #GreenDeal, die Digitale Agenda und die Reform des Gemeinsamen Europäischen Asylsystems zeigen.
Day 814 of Full Scale Russian Invasion/ Day 3,740 Since Russia’s Invasion of Crimea Ukraine.
After 10 years of Russia’s war criminals bombing of Ukraine and hundreds of billions of dollars spent destroying Ukraine's power plants, hydroelectric dams and energy infrastructure, tonight putin's Russian war criminals have finally succeeded in cutting electricity to almost all of #Ukraine, blackouts across whole country.
Please, speak up for Ukrainians. #EU and #Nato must close the sky over Ukraine. We must stop Putin's war of aggression.
❗️Update from #Kyiv Friday night-Saturday early:
Blackouts here last for four hours each day.
We're having blackouts every day here. Putin bydlo. B Y D L O.
Der #Mindestlohn liegt unter dem Niveau von 60 % des Medianlohns, den die Mindestlohnrichtlinie der #EU als angemessen ansieht. Noch hat die Mindestlohnkommission - sprich die Arbeitgeberseite - die Chance zu handeln. Gemäß der 60-%-Zielmarke muss der Mindestlohn auf mindestens 14 € angehoben werden, um einen verlässlichen Mindestschutz zu gewährleisten. Ansonsten braucht sich niemand über ein Einschreiten des Gesetzgebers wundern.
Remember on February 25th, 2022 war criminal Putin's mouthpiece Sergey Lavrov to CNN Live on air “Nobody is going to attack the people of #Ukraine, there will be NO strikes on civilian infrastructure......read what Putin said. No strikes on civilian infrastructure, no strikes on the personnel of the Ukrainian army"
This is Hitler 2.0. While they are murdering Ukrainians, he repeats insane lies on live international broadcast to the world, like we were never going to find the hundreds of massacres and hundreds of mass graves or discover Four Million missing Ukrainians?
#I know #Russia doesn't have the numbers necessary to do a strategic breakthrough,” Christopher #Cavoli told reporters after a meeting of the alliance’s defense chiefs at #NATO headquarters in #Brussels
“They don't have the skill and the capability to do it, to operate at the scale necessary to exploit any breakthrough to strategic advantage," said the #US general, but added: "They do have the ability to make local advances and they have done some of that”
#NATO allies are inching closer to sending troops into #Ukraine to train Ukrainian forces, a move that would be another blurring of a previous red line and could draw the #US and Europe more directly into the war.
So far the United States has said no, but Gen. Charles Q. #Brown Jr., the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said on Thursday that a NATO deployment of trainers appeared inevitable. “We’ll get there eventually, over time,” he said.
Discussions in Brussels to finalize a border and transit deal for Gibraltar have ended without an agreement, leaving the self-governing British territory in limbo after Brexit ended its time in the European Union. Gibraltar residents came out overwhelmingly against leaving the E.U., with 96% of people voting to remain. The vote revived historic tensions between Spain and Britain over the territory, with Madrid calling for Gibraltar’s “decolonization.” Read more from Euronews.
