Its not fully open source actually. Just the App, not the infrastructure or what and who's behind .

Maybe not all the system is corrupted, but when I found that Switzerland just follow the rules defined by the open wallet forum in this case. I've doubts

The thing is plenty of politics are paid by insurances and other big companies. Those people influence most of the voters which makes it unbalanced

Agee there's kinda direct democracy. But check out, its public. How many top level politics are paid by insurances ? 50-80 people ?^^

For me a democracy is a government not funded by private companies.

"Can be", we know that citizens do not have criticism sense for technologies matters

My point of views is it will be used more broadly, in every services. So, even if it will be "optional",there will be no option to choose not to use it.

End of September, Switzerland will vote for E-ID. A big threat for our privacy as it will widely used for tons of new use cases.

Behind the government pitch of an "open source project, completely optional" hides big tech industry... Which will make it mandatory to access their services.

What are your thoughts on that ?

Recent news revealed that Spotify’s CEO Daniel Ek has been investing heavily in military tech companies, which adds another ethical layer to a platform already criticized for how little it pays musicians !

Spotify only pays artists about $3–5 per 1,000 streams, using a pro-rata model that directs most money toward major stars... By contrast, Qobuz (≈$18–20 per 1,000 streams) and Tidal (≈$12–13) pay far more fairly!

However Tidal is far from ethical. Most of its revenue is controlled by private investors and founders and small artists still earn very little...

More fair-minded platforms like Bandcamp, Resonate, Ampled, or SoundCloud’s fan-powered royalties prioritize musicians over investors.

With these more ethical alternatives available, why do we keep using Spotify?
