nemo™ 🇺🇦<p>Big Tech prioritizes profit over democracy. Their algorithms amplify hate and polarization, undermine public debate, and can even manipulate elections. Using social media consciously-such as employing ad blockers and being aware of algorithmic influence-is an act of defending democracy. Open-source and decentralized platforms are essential for a free and open digital public sphere. 🛑📉🤖 <a href="https://mas.to/tags/ProtectDemocracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ProtectDemocracy</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/StopBigTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StopBigTech</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSource</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Decentralization" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Decentralization</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SocialMedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SocialMedia</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/fckafd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fckafd</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/unplugtrump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>unplugtrump</span></a></p>
nemo™ 🇺🇦<p>Big Tech geht über Leichen, um Profit zu machen – Demokratie ist ihnen egal. Ihre Algorithmen fördern Hass &amp; Polarisierung, zerstören öffentliche Debatten und manipulieren Wahlen. Ein bewusster Umgang mit Social Media, z.B. Werbeblocker &amp; Algorithmus-Awarenes, ist ein Akt der Demokratieverteidigung. Open-Source &amp; dezentrale Plattformen sind der Schlüssel für eine freie digitale Öffentlichkeit! 🛑📉🤖 <a href="https://mas.to/tags/DemokratieSch%C3%BCtzen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>DemokratieSchützen</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/StopBigTech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>StopBigTech</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/OpenSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>OpenSource</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/Dezentralisierung" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Dezentralisierung</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/SocialMedia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SocialMedia</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/fckafd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>fckafd</span></a> <a href="https://mas.to/tags/unplugtrump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>unplugtrump</span></a></p>
