The main reason you want to get out of US Social Media as a European is that US servers are under US law. And European are under our laws. So even if Facebook, Google, Apple, X, Instagram tells you they will handle your data with respect - you have no way of knowing and no way of stopping them if they don't.

The data these US platforms collect are incredibly powerful and can be used to sway opinion and "control crowds".

> According to a study Burilkov co-authored for think tank Bruegel and the Kiel Institute, Europe could need 300,000 more troops to deter Russian aggression, in addition to 1.47 million active-duty military personnel.

Noting a sharp increase in the number of Russian disinformation bot/propaganda accounts on here.

All are new, with little organic/genuine activity. All copy-and-paste-ing the same handful of agitprop messages in response to unrelated posts. Usually a fair bit of hashtag abuse, too.
