In the age of AI, how can a platform know whether an account belongs to a real human, not a bot or AI agent? Should every platform have to verify this itself, collecting personal data? At #Trefdag26, @robin.berjon.com and I demonstrated a different model that separates the responsibilities:

You control your identity. @athumi.eu, a DGA-registered data intermediary, verifies you using government eID systems and issues a “Verified Human” label without publishing underlying identity data. The social app reads and displays your label. digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/...
Verification is optional. You can remove your label, stay pseudonymous and reuse it on any compatible AT Protocol app. The demo was built in 1 week by @becrsh.eurosky.social's team @ Athumi. @sherif.mu.social from @eurosky.social integrated label requests & display in a @mu.social demo environment.
Technologie stopt niet aan grenzen. Data evenmin. Op #Trefdag26 verkennen @robin.berjon.com en ik hoe interoperabiliteit Europa weerbaarder kan maken. 👉 lnkd.in/eCAmye_G 📅 22 oktober 2026 | Flanders Expo Gent | 15:00 – 15:25 Bekijk alle Athumi break-outsessies hier: lnkd.in/ek95Jaj3
This is just the demo (come see us presenting it with @vdbdavid.eurosky.social at www.vlaanderen.be/trefdag-vlaa... next week!) but: - Optional ID verification - Only showed my ID to the government, super easy with myGov.be - My details aren't stored on protocol

#Trefdag26 opening keynote: Jan Smedts over strategische autonomie, @tomvandeweghe.bsky.social over geopolitiek & technologie, Sofie Fransen over grip houden als professional. www.vlaanderen.be/trefdag-vlaa... “Soeverein in een verbonden wereld” is precies de vraag waar onze keynote op aansluit.
How can Europe build digital infrastructure that is both resilient and sovereign, without closing itself off from the world? Great to have @robin.berjon.com joining us at #Trefdag26 to explore that question, and how interoperability and open ecosystems can strengthen Europe’s digital resilience.

On October 22, come see @vdbdavid.eurosky.social and I talk at Trefdag Vlaanderen Digitaal about the European Model of Tech! www.vlaanderen.be/trefdag-vlaa...
Technology knows no borders. Neither does data. At #Trefdag26, @robin.berjon.com and I will show how interoperability can help make Europe’s digital infrastructure more resilient and reduce dependencies. 22 October, 15:00–15:25, Track 3 - Flanders Expo, Ghent.
Athumi will be at #Trefdag26 Visit our stand and join our sessions on AI & construction data, public-private data collaboration, real-time insights into utility works, and Europe’s digital infrastructure. View the full programme: athumi.eu/athumi-op-tr...

Digital sovereignty is about control and keeping options open. At CIONET, Athumi shared how we reduce technology dependencies step by step, without compromising security, compliance or efficiency. 💡Exit readiness is a capability, not a crisis response. www.cionet.com/events/be/th...
