Epicenter Works has released a newsletter analysing how the EU Kids Act would affect the Fediverse, including services like Mastodon. The analysis argues the law's impact on small decentralised platforms could be harsher than under the Digital Services Act, prompting concern that independent, non-commercial social networks may struggle to comply. The commentary is circulating among European digital-rights and open-source communities.

Why now: EU online-safety legislation is being debated and decentralised platforms fear disproportionate compliance burdens.
