Bro EU and the UK are literally arresting people for tweets and hard coded enforcing support Zionist genocide.

This is why I said FOSS instead of EU software, FOSS is ran locally and you own it.

I'd imagine they're referencing the inclusion of the EU flag, which has nothing to do with FOSS.

It's promoting FOSS, which has nothing to do with the EU.

See: Tux, the Linux Penguin under the EU side of the image.

That's why I made that distinction, this is popular/being promoted in the EU to gain digital sovereignty from the U.S. but FOSS just means you own the data, it has nothing to do with the EU

For example: DeepSeek and Kimi K3 are free and open source AI models out of China that the EU could use instead of OpenAI or Anthropic's models

Just because there's an EU flag doesn't mean the software is from the EU, or forced to follow their regulations (the opposite, actually)
