#fixthecra — Public Fediverse posts

Buongiorno dalla @EU_Commission e questa volta è una buona notizia perché è stato raggiunto un accordo su CRA e l'ultima versione prevede un'esenzione per il software open source e le piccolissime imprese, e inoltre è stato accantonato anche il Chat Control quindi per ora tutto bene!

Eppoi andiamo a dire qualcosa di frizzante su Google Chrome e Linda Yaccarino.

A poi, ciao.

Buongiorno da @sparkfabrik eh sì oggi inizio citando proprio un articolo scritto da noi e pubblicato sul blog di CNCF che parla (bene) di CRA e rilancia l'hashtag promosso da Linux Foundation Europe #FixTheCRA.

Cuore delle news frizzanti di oggi, il ritorno ufficiale di Sam Altman in @openai con insediamento del nuovo board, con un posticino riservato a Microsoft, e infine Okta.

This goes to show that politicians corrupt everything they touch and regulation is created only to serve their interests, in this case under the guise of child sexual abuse.

#Privacy and #Encryption should be based on the #Cypherpunks principles of anonymity in #Permissionless systems where gatekeepers are powerless by design.

There is no way to #FixTheCRA, it should be bypassed by proper #FOSS software.

If the EU's CRA goes ahead as planned we might have to consider legal loopholes like distributing software as Vinyl records again (as was done in the 80s), where it can be argued the carried information is NOT software, but audio... (maybe also leading to an unexpected revival of noisecore):

@toxi @plexus This will affect lots of already funded projects that have been funded by @EC_NGI . Lots of projects have one developer only or a small group of developers working.

I'm sure @NGIZero would agree as they've funded lots of small projects on behalf of the EU.

@plexus Good point, I thought there was an "Act Now" button somewhere too... Just quoting from their email now:

Form your opinion

Open Source Foundations have provided several opinions on why the CRA is problematic. Here's a sample list:

- https://blog.opensource.org/the-ultimate-list-of-reactions-to-the-cyber-resilience-act/
- https://pyfound.blogspot.com/2023/04/the-eus-proposed-cra-law-may-have.html
- https://www.linuxfoundation.org/blog/linux-foundation-newsletter-april-2023
- https://eclipse-foundation.blog/2023/01/15/european-cyber-resiliency-act-potential-impact-on-the-eclipse-foundation/
- https://fsfe.org/news/2023/news-20230323-01.en.html

Voice your concerns

You can propose the aforementioned amendments emailing directly your MEPs (the Rapporteur for the CRA is Nicola Danti):

https://www.europarl.europa.eu/meps/en/home
https://www.europarl.europa.eu/meps/en/124821/NICOLA_DANTI/home

...or to your national European Council representative, either individually or your company public affairs department, is the most impactful thing you can do now.

https://www.consilium.europa.eu/en/european-council/

Get your organization involved

If your organization is already engaging with legislators either in your country in the EU or in Brussels, or you would like to get your organization engaged, you can also reach out at [email protected] and we can discuss further joint next steps.

Time is of the essence here, as the legislation is progressing quickly!

The current state of the EU's Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) will have devastating negative consequences for #OpenSource communities and esp. indy devs. Help us #FixTheCRA by making your voice heard (that also includes anyone outside the EU and anyone actively using/benefiting from OSS/FOSS/FLOSS software/services — do take action & make some noise in your own future self-interest!)

Not tooting much, but I guess I might as well for this:

#LFEurope @EP_Industry

Oggi al devsecopsday @grusp a presentare questo nuovo evento dedicato alla #security!

Temi sicuramente di grandissima attualità, speaker esperti e interessanti, delegazione @sparkfabrik in prima linea, e andiamo a divulgare fortissimo 💪

E con una raccomandazione che aggiungo io: informatevi sul Cyber Resilience Act! Trovate tutte le info possibili da @openssf e @linuxfoundation 🤟 #FixTheCra

I think what caused a reaction from the open source community in Europe was the fact that the government enacted [the CRA] that affects them without consultation said @Omkhar in interview w/ @darkreading https://www.darkreading.com/edge/will-government-secure-open-source-or-muck-it-up #FixtheCRA
