One of the things that I noticed in listening to the European Parliament debate on #Article13 and #Article11 was the live interpreters briefly mentioning their own strike action before translating the rest of the debate. The were requisitioned to translate it: https://www.euractiv.com/section/economy-jobs/news/meps-show-support-for-parliament-interpreters/

Hey I just wanted to personally say THANK YOU to those of you who wrote, called, visited, screamed at their MEP on this whole #Article13 fiasco. We had so many ways in which we could take action yet only a small proportion of us actually did. Proof again that when we pull together, we are strong!

democracy is a grassroots tyranny against public officials
if you don't like being subject to public consequences for your actions, retire from office

Looking forward to this, later today.
Shame that (so far) Mr Zuck won't talk to democratic structures representing less than c250 million people.

@boneidol Somebody (unknown) reported a bunch of FB accounts of anarchist / arnarcho-republican groups using personal profiles (rather than pages or groups) for “real name” violations; technically correct, under FB T&Cs, so all the accounts were suspended, a few days beforehand.

@boneidol Chilling effects in action. That was quite disgraceful, and nobody owned up to the stuff that happened on FB.

@boneidol I can imagine. Problem is, I feel conflicted; I don’t like the whole thing and feel the best thing is to ignore it, but it’s also impossible to ignore.
