In their own words

“People vs Big Tech is an open movement of civil society organisations and concerned citizens working together to challenge the power and abuses of Big Tech, with a focus on the major social media companies. Our priority is to ensure today’s tech titans and their legions of lobbyists are not allowed to be the dominant influence on Europe’s technology regulations.…”
