The Iranian regime is intensifying digital repression to silence dissent. If you feel like you might be affected, you can reach out to Miaan Group for support via miaan.org/dsh

This new @boell.de study shows: EU countries understand the value of #defence cooperation. Bilateral projects are a start — but true readiness by 2030 needs common #EU action. The tools are there, now member states must make full use of them.
23.10.2025 17:39 — 👍 8 🔁 2 💬 0 📌 0Free media are the backbone of democracy. When they are silenced, truth collapses with them.
#Europe and partners must act:
➡️grant protection visas swiftly,
➡️support Afghan media in exile,
➡️and uphold #PressFreedom as a global responsibility. 6/6
Even in exile, Afghan journalists are not safe. In Türkiye, Pakistan, and sometimes beyond, they face the threat of deportation.
Returning them would mean sending them back into persecution. #NonRefoulement #TransnationalRepression 5/6
Women and minorities suffer most. Hazara journalists report discrimination, harassment and torture.
For many, a press card no longer offers protection. It marks them as targets. 4/6
Taliban’s intelligence agencies monitor every line, raid newsrooms, and label critical reporting as “spying”.
Many #journalists are forced to sign pledges never to work again. Fear has replaced freedom. 3/6
Since #Taliban takeover, more than half of #AfghanMedia outlets have shut down.
Women’s voices have almost vanished from public life. Speaking the truth has become an act of courage. 2/6 #GenderApartheid

A Thread: This year’s #SakharovPrize 2025 honours those who risk everything for freedom of thought.
Press freedom is not a privilege. It’s the foundation of every free society.
In #Afghanistan, it is being trampled. Journalists face detention, torture & censorship simply for doing their jobs. 1/6
We are no longer at peace. Member States need to get together to defend every inch of the European project together — or there won’t be one left to defend.

The courage to speak truth in face of tyranny is the essence of freedom.
2025 #SakharovPrize goes to Belarusian journalist Andrzej Poczobut & Georgian journalist Mzia Amaglobeli.
Voices silenced by regimes, yet louder than ever in defence of democracy ♥️
#Trump wants the applause but counts on everyone else to deal w/ the messy reality & on Gulf countries & 🇪🇺to pay the bill. Let’s use our leverage to finally break the cycle of rebuilding what will only be destroyed again in #Gaza. For a lasting peace between #Israel & #Palestine

Diese Männer, wie Friedrich #Merz, die immer nur dann zu Feministen werden, wenn sie (angeblich) schwache Frauen vor (angeblich) gewalttätigen Ausländern glauben beschützen zu müssen… Nein Danke. Grüße auch von der Tochter.

Was früher Wanzen & Spitzel waren, ist heute #Spyware. Wie schützt man #Freiheit im digitalen Zeitalter? 📆 12.11., 18:30 Uhr #BerlinFreedomWeek; Diskussion mit Carine Kanimba, @andre.netzpolitik.org ; @jsrailton.bsky.social; @mariannebirthler.bsky.social u.a. Infos & Anmeldung 👇
20.10.2025 08:37 — 👍 21 🔁 10 💬 1 📌 0Eine Woche rund um #Demokratie & #Menschenrechte – mitten in Berlin. Vom 8.–15. November feiert die #BerlinFreedomWeek den Mut, der Mauern überwindet & die Werte, die unsere freie Gesellschaft tragen. 💚 🕊️Hier findet ihr das Programm 👇 #HumanRights #Freiheit
20.10.2025 07:55 — 👍 4 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0The #Council still too often defends member states’ egoistic interests instead of the common #European interest — but it took steps forward. Now it’s crucial to bring this instrument to life. We need swift #implementation and real European added value for every euro spent. (4/4)
17.10.2025 08:07 — 👍 3 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0However, we wanted more #ambition on joint procurement, on support for #Ukraine and SMEs, and a stronger role for #Parliament. We also regret some last-minute concessions, particularly on eligibility and an exemption from compliance with environmental protection aims. (3/4)
17.10.2025 08:07 — 👍 3 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0EDIP is an important step in that direction, but with limited resources. On the positive side, we secured long-term instruments for joint procurement and supply chain security, as well as a framework for Projects of Common Interest that will help close key #capability gaps. (2/4)
17.10.2025 08:07 — 👍 2 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0
It’s good that we have an agreement on #EDIP. With Russia’s aggression growing, Europe must strengthen its own #defence capabilities and reduce #dependencies. We either stand together and defend every inch of the European project or we risk losing it. (1/4)
17.10.2025 08:07 — 👍 6 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 1Following @greens-efa.eu request in response to revelations from @ftm.eu & @apache.be, LIBE committee @europarl.europa.eu will hold a debate about EU funding to Israeli #spyware companies.
We call on full transparency and follow up on the PEGA committee recommendations.
More info about date soon.
ICE using spyware like Paragon’s Graphite risks sidestepping existing safeguards — normalising surveillance practices that threaten democracy itself and raising serious questions about data protection. 9/9
16.10.2025 12:08 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0AccessNow is calling for:
⚠️Immediate suspension of spyware contracts
🔍 More transparency
🏦Strong congressional oversight
📜 Legislative reform
⚖️ Lawsuits from those targeted by these attacks 8/9
Every time a democratic government buys or deploys commercial spyware, it fuels the global exploit market, the same one that sustains repressive regimes and criminal hackers. The vulnerabilities used by Graphite can be weaponized by anyone. 7/9
16.10.2025 12:08 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0The result? A vast pool of sensitive personal information that can be shared, misused, or hacked.
Now add spyware to that mix — and you amplify the risk dramatically. 6/9
