Microsoft gaat haar licenties voor het onderwijs aanpassen: In de plaats van gratis modules komen er uitgeklede versies en betaalde opties. Waarom zijn we niet verbaasd over deze verschuiving? Daarom zeggen we: stap over naar open source. Dan ben je zelf in control https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/training/educator-center/instructor-materials/microsoft-365-education-portfolio #microsoft #foss #opensource

Several hundred activists occupied the construction site of a planned Microsoft data centre in Amsterdam on Friday, protesting the technology giant's alleged role in facilitating Israel's genocide in Gaza, as well as the environmental impact of artificial intelligence infrastructure. #DataCentres #AI #Microsoft #Amsterdam #Technology #Gaza 'It would facilitate Gaza genocide': Protesters storm Microsoft planned site | Middle East Eye

'Activists have stormed the site of a Microsoft datacentre being built in Amsterdam, as the backlash to the social and environmental harms of the AI boom spreads across Europe. Protesters from Geef Tegengas, a Dutch direct action group, clashed with police while breaking into a construction site at Westpoort, Amsterdam, where some members climbed a crane, lit flares and tied helium balloons to equipment. [...] Big tech and government are racing ahead with large-scale datacentre development despite significant public concern about the impacts on local communities, natural resources and other industries,” said Owen Espley, campaign coordinator. “Many datacentre developments are planned with limited transparency or scrutiny, while communities across Europe are being shut out of decisions that will shape their local environments and futures.' https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/nov/06/activists-break-into-building-site-of-microsoft-datacentre-in-amsterdam #Microsoft #BigTech #Sabotage #Datacenter #Amsterdam

Le CNRS adopte la messagerie collaborative sécurisée de Renater : PARTAGE https://www.cnrs.fr/fr/presse/le-cnrs-adopte-la-messagerie-collaborative-securisee-de-renater-partage Le #CNRS a souscrit à «PARTAGE», la plateforme de messagerie collaborative en mode SaaS de #RENATER. Ce choix s’inscrit dans la démarche de sortie des #GAFAM du CNRS, + particulièrement sa sortie de #Microsoft. Le passage d’1 messagerie sous Exchange à des outils libres (#Zimbra) opérée par 1 partenaire permet de gagner en souveraineté numérique. Dans le cadre de l’optimisat° des coûts informatiques dans lequel le CNRS s’est aussi engagé, cette migrat° permet également de réaliser des gains financiers, de l’ordre de 3,5 millions € /an #LogicielsLibres

(via Geef Tegengas) "Join our mass action against the Microsoft data center on November 6! 🔥 From Switzerland, Portugal, Poland, Denmark, Germany and Belgium, groups are uniting in Amsterdam because data centers (or in this case even hyperscale centers) are rising everywhere. Data centers use all our resources, they are used by Microsoft to support the genocide on Palestine, they let Al take over our jobs and brains, and it is all being decided behind closed doors. They're just a toy for the Tech Fascist millionaires to win the race of the biggest, fastest, richest and most genocide supporting. But we will NOT allow this! We are reclaiming our land, our cities, our right to have a say in our futures and to kick all Tech Fascists out! Join us together with thousands of others, and block these fascist black boxes. This weekend, everywhere in Europe there will be demonstrations and actions happening to stop new data centers. Digital infrastructure is used for oppression. Together we can take back the power of Big Tech. On November 6 we stand up against Microsoft. NOT IN AMSTERDAM, NOT ANYWHERE! Are you joining us?"

🥱 Microsoft has announced “digital sovereignty”. Again. Every time, it’s new terms that mean little when a foreign government can still demand your data or cut off your services. The stack, licensing, updates and rules stay under Microsoft’s control, not yours. That’s sovereignty-washing. We go into more detail in our latest article on the topic: 👉 https://nextcloud.com/blog/sovereignty-washing-microsoft-cloud #DigitalSovereignty #SovereigntyWashing #Microsoft #Azure #OpenSource
