Wolny (jak w rewolucji) internet to podstawa współczesnej organizacji ruchów społecznych. Nie możemy pozwolić, żeby kontrola nad tym co i komu mówimy spoczywała w rękach korporacji.
Ta społeczność ma na celu dyskutowanie jasnych i ciemnych stron internetowej wolności. Tak alternatyw, jak i wyciągających się za nami korporacyjnych.
Z zakresu informatyki warto zajrzeć też do społeczności;
Polecamy uwadze też przydatny spis praktycznych Szmerowych techno-porad.

This is the best summary I could come up with:
In the middle of a wave of rampant misinformation, excessive hate speech, and endless harassment, X owner Elon Musk set his sights on Wikipedia.
Not to be outdone by his own tweet, Musk immediately followed it up with a challenge: “I will give them a billion dollars if they change their name to Dickipedia.”
Beyond its status as the largest and “most-read reference work in history,” Wikipedia has long been heralded as a product of both massive fundraising and an internet full of people obsessed with very specific things.
Earlier this month, Musk called the internet encyclopedia “wokipedia,” after co-founder Wales criticized rampant misinformation on X.
(An October report from NBC found that the Community Notes program has allowed known war misinformation to thrive on the platform unchecked for hours.)
For Rauwerda’s own purposes, right now that includes the description of zoo animals as celebrities in 19th-century American news and a serial defecator in Colorado nicknamed the Mad Pooper.
The original article contains 772 words, the summary contains 159 words. Saved 79%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Oh, calling out misinformation is woke too now?
apparently yes
