Hi Bluesky, I am a retired librarian from Austria with a strong interest in politics, art and literature as well as photography. After the takeover of Twitter (X) I stopped using social media. With Bluesky I want to make a new start.

📣 Germany's close to reversing its opposition to mass surveillance & private message scanning, & backing the Chat Control bill. This could end private comms-& Signal-in the EU.
