Dear friends,
The WMF Global Advocacy team has released our "Don't Blink" monthly retrospective for May.
Every month we share developments from around the world that shape people’s ability to participate in the free knowledge movement. In case you blinked this month, here are the most important public policy advocacy topics that kept the Wikimedia Foundation busy in May: https://diff.wikimedia.org/2023/06/27/dont-blink-public-policy-snapshot-for-may-2023/
Highlights include: * European Commission designated Wikipedia as a “Very Large Online Platform” (VLOP) under the new Digital Services Act (DSA) * Potential Effects of UK Online Safety Bill (OSB) on Wikimedia Projects * Implications for the Wikimedia Model from US Supreme Court Rulings
If you want more information about any of these initiatives, or wish to share something of your own, get in touch.
We hope you enjoy the read!
Ziski & The Global Advocacy Team
