Evros: Instead of Help, Violence Arrives
https://alarmphone.org/en/2026/07/18/evros-instead-of-help-violence-arrives/In the past months, Alarm Phone received many calls from the #Evros/Meriç region by people on the move being stranded in Greek territory. Most of these cases ended with heavy violence, robbery and illegal pushbacks by Greek authorities. Frontex, #UNHCR and others are silent bystanders.
...Organisations like #Frontex and UNHCR are informed about ALL these cases. They cannot remain silent regarding these crimes, committed by their partners in front of their eyes. We demand immediate investigations into all these incidents.
We are angry and shocked by this heavy violence executed in plain public, under the eyes of Frontex and UNHCR and heavily funded by European money and legitimized by #Europe’s political climate. These crimes are only possible, because European politics let them happen.
These are means of a fascist regime – these are crimes against humanity, committed on European soil.

The developers of Funda and Rabobank seem to suddenly block alternative mobile OS's, like @e_mydata and @GrapheneOS
They're likely doing this through using the strictest device attestation settings in Google's Play Integrity API.
Funda is the largest Dutch housing platform in the country (like Zillow), and Rabobank is the 2nd largest bank in the #TheNetherlands.
This is why we need alternatives within the mobile ecosystem.

🇬🇧 French fast fashion law: does it actually address the problem?
What are the real reasons behind the law: environmental protection or protectionism?
On June 29, France passed a landmark bill targeting ultra-fast fashion giants like Shein, Temu, and AliExpress. Fees up to €20 per item. Advertising bans. Funding for recycling.
Sounds like a win — but let's look closer.
European brands like Zara, H&M, and Kiabi are largely exempt. Same business model. Different rules. The advertising ban — the law's strongest measure — is already being questioned by the EU. If it falls, we're left with pocket-change fees.
Meanwhile, Europe's approach is fragmented: EU charges per parcel, Italy charges per parcel, France charges per item. No coherent strategy.
Genuine reform would mean equal rules for ALL players. Instead, we get political theatre.
If fast fashion is destructive, why are we protecting our own version of it?

🇮🇹 Legge francese sul fast fashion: tutela ambientale o protezionismo?
Il 29 giugno la Francia ha approvato una legge che colpisce Shein, Temu e AliExpress. Multe fino a 20€ a capo. Stop alla pubblicità. Fondi per il riciclo.
Sembra una vittoria — ma guardiamo più da vicino.
Zara, H&M e Kiabi sono esentate. Stesso modello di business. Regole diverse. Il divieto pubblicitario — la misura più forte — è già sotto esame dalla Commissione Europea. Se cade, restano solo spiccioli.
L'Europa è frammentata: EU tassa per pacco, Italia per pacco, Francia per capo. Nessuna strategia coerente.
Riforma vera significherebbe regole uguali per TUTTI. Invece abbiamo teatro politico.
Se il fast fashion è dannoso, perché proteggiamo la nostra versione?

3/3 The letterbox passes the test. The hospitals are still on AWS. The framework knows this and has decided, for now, that this is acceptable.
Whether the European Parliament agrees when it reads Annex II is the next question.

Our new EU in Practice piece looks at how EU toy safety rules protect children from hidden risks — from chemicals and small parts to unsafe online marketplace listings.

The products we throw away don’t disappear.
They move.
Across borders, across economies, across inequalities.

You probably don’t think twice about the food you eat.
You buy it, cook it, eat it and trust that it’s fine.
But that trust isn’t automatic. It’s built.
In this new EU in Practice piece, we look at how food safety actually works in Europe, and at the system that shapes what ends up on your plate (and what doesn’t).
It’s one of those things we only notice when it breaks.

You cross a border. Your phone doesn’t notice.
No extra charges. No disruption. No second thought.
But it wasn’t always like this.
In our latest EU in Practice episode, we explore how the EU quietly removed one of the most frustrating barriers in everyday life, and what that reveals about how Europe actually works.
