@dang This post is an Ad for unofficial merch, profiting from an ongoing news story.
Should we change the URL ?
https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/da/speech_26_150 https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/da/speech...
https://tech.eu/2026/01/20/the-european-commission-launches-eu-inc-the-long-awaited-28th-regime-for-startups/ https://tech.eu/2026/01/20/the-european-commission-launches-...
- embedding-shape 9mo agoThis submission originally did link to https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/da/speech_26_150 https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/da/speech..., but was later changed to this. Or two submissions (one for each URL) was linked/merged. But something used to link to the press release rather than this website, FWIW. Also, about reducing it down to "an Ad for unofficial merch", isn't this literally the grassroot movement that led to what was announced today? Or am I getting the relationship wrong? The domain in question was registered 2024-10-09.

- embedding-shape 9mo ago> The grassroot movement is from https://proposal.eu-inc.org https://proposal.eu-inc.org So correct me if I had way too little coffee, but that subdomain is under eu-inc.org meaning eu-inc.org is in fact the grassroot movement then? I don't understand the complaint, seems to be the right people? You're mad about that they also sell hats?
- goldenarm 9mo agoApologies, misred that part, but I maintain the rest of my argument. This is unofficial, pushing for merch, 5 lines of info page, and should not have replaced a post about more detailed news reports.
- embedding-shape 9mo agoHow can you maintain the rest of your argument when the entire basis for said argument been proven wrong? It's not "profiting from an ongoing news story" when they literally created what this news story is about!
- dewey 9mo agoThat's not someone profiting from the news story. It's the website of the group of people who were pushing that, talking to the EU and lobbying for it for a while. It's even linked on the website of the organizers behind it https://klinger.io https://klinger.io and https://www.linkedin.com/company/eu-inc/about/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/eu-inc/about/
- jcattle 9mo agoThis is the official page of the EU-INC lobby group.
