"Open source licensing permits continued operation of the software with an EU provider."
That’s technically true, but in practice, how many such transitions actually happen? How many of these tools become hollowed-out ghost projects after the buyout? We need the EU to fund #4opens #FOSS and commons-native projects directly, not startups chasing exit strategies.

Getting through this era of collapse with anything humane intact
The discussions on sovereignty at #NGIForum2025 make me wonder: what year are we in? It’s as if we’re rebooting grassroots conversations we’ve had for decades - but without the mess, memory, or movement that gave them meaning in the first place. A breath of clarity came from @renchap, who said it plainly: We need to focus our efforts on funding and supporting public value network infrastructure… THAT CANNOT BE BOUGHT. 💪 Absolutely. If that idea resonates with you, try starting […]https://hamishcampbell.com/getting-through-this-era-of-collapse-with-anything-human-left-intact/

🇪🇺 Major moment at #NGIForum25! Thibaut Kleiner, director #DGCONNECT at the European Commission is delivering the keynote that's setting the strategic direction for Europe's digital sovregnity and future.
"We started the #NGI community 10 years ago. My message is that we are also at a stage where we need to move on. We need to go to the next stage. We want to go from communities to products and that's why we introduced this concept of Open Internet Stack," said Thibaut Kleiner.

"There are many people who want to build on digitally autonomous infrastructure, but there is nowhere for them to go to."
"We need to enable the people to govern the internet, by giving them agency - we need to teach them to *open source*"
So. Much. Yes. #ngiforum2025 #ngiforum25 #ngiforum

🎙️ @moniquecalisti #MartelInnovate's CEO is opening and moderating key sessions at this week’s #NGIForum25 event on #DigitalSovereignty & #DigitalCommons (June 19–20)!
She’ll lead:
🧰 Digital Commons for Sovereignty
🌐 Interoperable Web 4.0 & Virtual Worlds -
If you want to know more what “Web 4.0” and “Open Internet Stack” actually means to the EU, the best information is contained within a customary PDF with an absurdly long URL instead of text on a website.

I will attend the Next Generation Internet Forum in Brussels on Thursday and Friday.
This event is part of the @EUCommission’s Horizon Europe program, which probably has funded more free and open source software development than any other government program.
The next grant program framing is bizarre—Virtual Worlds and Web 4.0—but €14.5M available for “Open Internet Stack” dev.
