Software security, trust, and public policy
summary
European policy shows concrete wins and real risks for software security: an EU FOSSA pilot bug bounty funds audits and hackathons to reward vulnerability disclosure, the Global Commission advances about seven norms including protecting the public core of the internet, and an EU network neutrality law enshrines non discrimination. At the same time the copyright directive nearly forces upload filters until an exclusion of software platforms from upload filters is added and 148 MEPs sign a cross border letter urging protections.
