Here are my takeaways from day 2 (and my last one) of #CPDP2026 :
1. Everyone hates the #simplification and #deregulation #Omnibus but the @EUCommission defends it regardless.
2. Experts propose very nuanced approaches for how to best protect minors online. So much expertise that #VonDerLeyen and many other lawmakers simply ignore.
3. The state of #DSA / #DMA enforcement is so dire that even orgs with 1st hand evidence of noncompliance don't bother to send it to regulators anymore. /fin 🧵

While the @EUCommission rep of course defends the #simplification agenda, Romain Robert from the @EDPS makes an important argument: if you wanted to "simplify" #GDPR, lawmakers could have clarified all the challenged items the law still has like #PayOrOK.

A Physical Bike Ride and Simplification
Reading Time: 2 minutesThis Saturday was a great day for group rides for one key reason. The temperatures were pleasant, but more importantly, there was no wind to blow us around. The result is that despite riding with Group 2 I felt energetic until almost the end. Usually I’m exhausted much sooner, with this group. The ‘simplification’ I allude to, in my title, is the enduring habit of trying one thing, and then another, until it works, instead of breaking. You’ll know what I got to work shortly.
Last Sunday we had two challenges. The first was that we had a very strong wind. When the wind blows and you’re on a bike, a comfortable ride becomes very hard because you’re pedalling hard, not to go fast, but simply to move forward. You feel deeply unfit as a result.
Add to this that it was cold and you’ve got two challenges. The wind wasn’t enough. The cold sapped even more energy. The result is that a “short” ride is just as exhausting as a long ride when it’s warm.
And this Week
This week the cycling group I ride with in Geneva, and the cycling group I ride with in Nyon both had their first group rides of the season. In Geneva it was the season opening. In Nyon it was just another normal week since this group persists through winter. The difference was the size of the groups, and the level of comfort.
When the wind isn’t blowing, and when the temperature is not freezing, riding is a pleasure. I felt full of energy for almost the entire ride.
Having said this, when we passed very close to my home I chickened out and went home. I felt exhausted and I didn’t want to ride back up the hill. According to Apple I burned 1900 kcals during the ride.
Thinking Laterally About the Fediverse
When I was thinking in a straight line, I wanted to turn my blog into a fediverse instance and I failed. I failed with Eleventy and I failed with Hugo. Each failure was confirmed after hours, not just minutes, of failing. I did persist.
This morning, before the ride I thought, What if I get javascript to retrieve all my posts and give them their Fediverse IDs, and I had the self-discipline not to forget to go for the bike ride. I forced myself just to leave the idea as it was, and head for a pre-ride coffee.
This afternoon, with a minimum of failure looping I got Gemini to help me achieve what I wanted. We even went for the bonus share.js option. Now, when I publish this post, it will be handed to my fediverse account and posted for people to read. The next step should be to add the first two or three sentences to provide people with context.
And Finally
All in all, this day has been a success, except for WordPress. If Jetpack hijacks posting to the fediverse, then I see no need to use WordPress. This is after using the open source project since 2005. They’re moving in a direction I dislike.

They call it #simplification. It means pollution. Commission gives a blank cheque. Big business enjoys. People die. On #WorldWaterDay, we’re facing a dangerous shift. Business lobbies want weaker water rules, faster permits, fewer checks - for profit. The @[email protected] must protect water.

✅️ Companies will now be subject to simpler, more proportionate sustainability reporting and due diligence rules – boosting competitiveness.

Le dispositif de ressources mensuelles (DRM) est devenu un pilier de la simplification des prestations sociales. En centralisant et en partageant les données nécessaires au calcul des droits (allocation logement) et au préremplissage des montants de revenus (RSA, prime d’activité, Aspa) auprès des organismes sociaux, il renforce la fiabilité des informations et facilite l’accès aux prestations. Piloté par l’Assurance retraite.

Explosion des data centers en France : une trajectoire hors de contrôle
https://lareleveetlapeste.fr/explosion-des-data-centers-en-france-une-trajectoire-hors-de-controle/e data centers s’accélère à un rythme effréné, portée par une volonté politique assumée de faire du territoire un hub stratégique du numérique. Face à cette fuite en avant, le collectif Le nuage était sous nos pieds vient de lancer son site internet, accompagné d’une cartographie participative recensant les data centers, actuels et futurs. Un outil pensé pour rendre visible une industrie opaque et alimenter les résistances face à l’expansion incontrôlée des infrastructures numériques.
