Jan Penfrat@ilumium@eupolicy.social (2026-10-01 16:30:42) So, the @EUCommission has rolled out @element chat as a backup system to their default #Teams for the 33k officials.

One official defended the new #Matrix-based system on an internal chat, according to Politico, by saying Teams wasn't as secure because "all we have is a guarantee that #Microslop [sic!] will not peek inside," and how can anyone not love that official.
