“Ada & Zangemann proves that the argument for software and hardware freedom is simple: We should be able to do what we want with our stuff. … Electronics freedom means more learning and less waste, as Ada shows. Kids and adults alike will be entertained by this book, charmed by its illustrations, and inspired by Ada’s engineering spirit and impassioned activism.”

Heute stellt @ulrichkelber den Datenschutzbericht 2023 vor. Die @Bundesregierung kann sich nicht auf seinen Nachfolger einigen.

Die @fsfe fordert daher gemeinsam mit der digitalen Zivilgesellschaft in einem Offenen Brief:

Der Bundesbeauftragte für den Datenschutz und die Informationsfreiheit muss die Amtsgeschäfte unabhängig von politischer Sanktion wahrnehmen können. Dazu ist ein transparentes Benennungsverfahren nötig.
