Hi all, There is a EU directive which may make it impossible to install custom software on your radio devices, e.g. routers, mobile phones, or embedded devices. You can help convince the European Commission to limit the number of device categories this affects, but the period is ending this Monday.
It is not hard to participate. I've just published a blog post summarising the topic (long version here [^1]) and providing basic arguments that you can reuse: https://blog.mehl.mx/2019/protect-freedom-on-radio-devices-raise-your-voice-today/ Please spend a few minutes to make your point by Monday. We need to show the Commission that there are people who actually care for user freedom on their devices, and who want to control their technology. Thanks for raising your voice!
