@marleenstikker what shocks me is that they qualify the European Commission and European member states as "foreign censors" (WHAAAAAT)?
@_elena @marleenstikker These guys are very big on DARVO as theatre to their base.

Incredible. “US has subpoenaed all tech companies to hand over all messages with EU officials that enforce the DSA” https://judiciary.house.gov/media/press-releases/chairman-jordan-probes-eu-bureaucrats-hiding-efforts-censor-american-speech
@marleenstikker Amazing, I bet nobody in the eu saw this coming….
Well it’s time for the eu orgs to switch to eu based tools. -

@marleenstikker yet another reason for #DataSovereignty - get a move on @EUCommission !

@marleenstikker Slightly confusing, as using secure communications between EU officials makes sense, but this subpoena is about communications with EU officials.
Makes no sense to use secure communications there.
The fact these companies cannot be trusted to keep anything handled by them secret, is another problem all together.
@avuko @marleenstikker But this is a press release, so either it suggests the technology companies were subpoenaed to produce the internal communications sbetween EU officials (which would be scandalous, and if things like this are going on, it would be bizarre to put it in a press release), or it is to paint a propagandistic picture of EU officials trying to hide ?

@marleenstikker as a European, I'd love to see this level of transparency. But I don't love what orange man will probably do with the information.

@_elena @marleenstikker Oh, right, is that it, then... I thought it would be something fancier. (-:

"Rather than reconsidering its censorship laws and changing its attitude towards free speech, the European Commission seems to be doubling down on its censorship efforts by attempting to hide them from the public.7" 1
7: Eliza Gkritsi, EU tech enforcer tells officials not to be scared by US threats, POLITICO (Feb. 16, 2026). 2
So this is,
Propaganda and posturing. In the second sentence of the letter send to all parties, they frame "the European Commission and European Union (EU) Member States" as "foreign censors".
"Ill doers are ill deemers", or as we say in Dutch: "Zo de waard is, vertrouwd hij zijn gasten". Jordan et al know how they scheme in secrecy with their US company collaborators, so they immediately assume EU officials are doing the same.

@marleenstikker looks like the US really wants EU to get their asses moving with tech sovereignty. i mean, good on the US. show the world how broken the system is.

@the_wub Exactly what I was thinking. Why make a press release about this? It doesn't make any sense.

De CLOUD-act is een soort voordeur, waarbij er een net verzoek naar Microsoft zou gaan “kunt u de email van de Nederlandse belastingdienst ophoesten?”. Zou netjes melding van gemaakt worden, en verwerkt worden in de statistieken. Maar ze gaan natuurlijk niet in Europa melden dat ze graag Europa af willen luisteren!"
