Bluesky Says It Will Comply With EU Rules After Being Called Out
(www.bloomberg.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
So how would this work if say, people were streaming over to Mastadon instead of bluesky? Like its not clear to me that even the larger fediverse instances would have the money/ access to lawyers to support something like this.
I think that's standard on mastodon and pleroma instances.
Clearly defined rules? How interesting... but moderation is a thing on the fediverse so, meh... maybe mastodon.social has to worry about it.
And yet they're not decentralized yet... if ever. Anyway, servers are physical.
A while back i was looking for instances in the EU and while a few claimed to be from a few different countries, their servers were all in Helsinki...
A lot of instances are hosted by Hetzner which has servers in Germany and Finland. Although that might not be what they mean by "legal presence".
That's what i thought, but what does it count as legal presence?
I can be a company with headquarters in France and using Hetzner as my provider, the server i use being in Finland. Do i follow french law or both?
Not a lawyer.
