Software Freedom Podcast
In our 52nd episode, we turn our attention to the European stages, this time going to the Netherlands. There, on 6 and 7 June, Dutch volunteers and Free Software enthusiasts came together for the 2026 T-DOSE conference, the heart and soul of the local community.

In the last weeks, we got the green light to intervene against Apple before the European Court of Justice for the second time (!) while the European Commission has included the “Public Money? Public Code!” principle in its Technological Sovereignty Package. And stay tuned! A new European consortium will be launching soon, and we are part of it!
Press Release
The European Commission published its Technological Sovereignty Package on 3 June 2026, containing the new "Open Source Strategy". If implemented, it could mark a paradigm shift by adopting the Free Software Foundation Europe’s “Public Money? Public Code!” principle. Its success will depend on binding rules, long-term funding, and meaningful civil society involvement.

I believe Free Software needs a voice at the national as well as the EU level in politics: Software does not exist in an isolated bubble, it's heavily dependent on the ecosystem that it lives in. In my opinion Free Software as well as open standards are key to creating a society that provides equal access.

Soy socio de la FSFE porque quiere mantener su trabajo de promocionar el Software Libre. Como persona que usa ordenadores intensivamente todos los días, me preocupa mucho la tendencia actual hacia el bloqueo de la informática, que aleja el control de los usuarios. Esto cada vez es más problemático ya que las vidas de las personas dependen más y más de los ordenadores, para comunicaciones personales, gestión de su economía, empleo, etc. El Software Libre es un requisito necesario para mantener el control de tu informática.
What is the biggest benefit of Free Software? Freedom!
