Summary: Notice how, as of today at ZDNet, “Linux” is actually Microsoft promotion (even where that has nothing to do with Linux) and WSL is promoted, as it’s an attack on GNU/Linux

Taking Back Control or Seizing Autonomy Over the News Cycle (Informing People, Culling the Marketing)
Reality Versus Fiction: EPO Insiders Versus EPO Web Site and UPC 'Churnalists'
The "official" sources of the European Patent Office (EPO), as well as the sedated "media" that the EPO is bribing for further bias, cannot tell the truth about this very large institution; for proper examination of Europe's largest patent office one must pursue the interpretation by longtime veterans and insiders, who are increasingly upset and abused (they're being pressured to grant patents in violation of the charter of the EPO)

2023 is the Year Taxpayers' Money Goes to War and Energy Subsidies, Not Tech
Now that a lot of powerful and omnipresent ‘tech’ (spying and policing) companies are rotting away we have golden opportunities to bring about positive change and maybe even recruit technical people for good causes
Getting Back to Productive Computer Systems Would Benefit Public Health and Not Just Boost Productivity
“Smartphoneshame” (shaming an unhealthy culture of obsession with “apps”) would potentially bring about a better, more sociable society with fewer mental health crises and higher productivity levels

Dotcom Boom and Bust, Round 2
The age of technology giants/monopolies devouring everything or military-funded (i.e. taxpayers-subsidised) surveillance/censorship tentacles, in effect privatised eyes of the state, may be ending; the United States can barely sustain that anymore and raising the debt ceiling won't solve that (buying time isn't the solution)
Society Would Benefit From a Smartphoneshame Movement
In a society plagued by blackmail, surveillance and frivolous lawsuits it is important to reconsider the notion of “smart” phone ownership; these devices give potentially authoritarian companies and governments far too much power over people (in the EU they want to introduce new legislation that would, in effect, ban Free software if it enables true privacy)
