use your voice

If you are concerned about people being influenced by Russia, the US, and China, be it via Facebook, Reddit, TikTok, local ads, or whatever else, if you are concerned about that friend who suddenly started spouting anti-EU rhetoric from Youtube, if you're unhappy with how the EU and member states have handled it so far, this is for you.

EU citizens can respond and it would be in our interest to do so too.

It will take 10 minutes if you're quick, longer if you want to leave comments on each point. There are 4 points with up to 4 sub points, each comment can be 3500 characters long.

You can respond in any of the 24 European languages, so if English is not your preferred language, use your mother tongue.
If you are part of a community in your EU mother tongue, share a link to this in your mother tongue.

Here are the supported languages:

Let's hope it brings some people here!

Also, for some reason I couldn't post the duplicate (they had already crossposted the previous post a month ago), hence the Red dit:

kudos to s h i k o r a

edit: complete list is here (4 pages long)

Creator: https://old.reddit.com/r/BuyFromEU/comments/1jp5y0p/i_made_an_app_to_scan_barcode_and_get_the_true/

I have created an app that allows to scan barcode and get the origin of the brands (with information about parent holding company if any). It also suggest EU alternatives for the product scanned.

There is already more than 1.1m product in the databases and 140k brands (out of ~150k) analyzed. The analysis is made by automatic crawlers, so there might get issue regarding that, do not hesitate to report it. Data are coming from the great OpenFoodFacts database.

Play Store (Android): Productr

Currently there is no iOS one, ~~I might create one if people are interested in the app (as App Store pricing is high, I prefer to check if people like the app before paying the fee)~~. EDIT: As a few people is requesting it and are interested, I will proceed to App Store submission for iOS version and pay the required fee. I will keep people informed about that. It should take a few days, the time I get a mac, release app and going through the validation process of Apple (it takes 48hr according to internet, so let's see if it's that fast).

I will publish a web version soon that will allow to use the app without installing it (either android or iOS).

Enjoy ! 🇪🇺

EDIT: Some more information. Cosmetic products are also available on it, but database is quite limited currently and brand crawling has just started. I plan to expand database in upcoming days.

Pet food products should be added soon too

After nearly a year of regulatory hurdles, Meta has finally begun deploying its conversational AI assistant across the European Union and neighboring countries this week.

The rollout, which covers 41 European countries and 21 overseas territories, marks Meta’s largest global expansion of Meta AI to date, though European users will initially access only a limited version of the technology.

European users will initially have access to what Meta describes as an “intelligent chat function” available in six European languages: English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, and Italian.

...

The AI assistant will be integrated across Meta’s suite of applications, including WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, and Messenger. Users can access Meta AI by tapping a blue circle icon within these apps to initiate conversations.

...

Meta has indicated this limited release is just “the first step” in its ongoing efforts to bring more AI capabilities to European users.
