From Meta, a Wikimedia project coordination wiki

In my volunteer capacity I have participated in many law making processes in Poland. Some of the below work was finished with the help of the Wikimedia Europe and Wikimedia Foundation staff members. Big kudos go to Szymon Grabarczuk, who was a big help with the Digital Services Act implementation in Poland.

The below page is the summary of my public policy activities since 2023

1 13 May 2023 Harmful change in the default CC license on Polish government websites Request for access to public information Chancellery of the Prime Minister of Poland (Centrum Informacyjne Rządu) [Google Drive link] Until August 2022, government pages in the gov.pl domain were made available under the CC BY 3.0 PL license. Since then, the pages have been made available under the much more restrictive CC BY-NC-ND 3.0 PL license. This change significantly limits the ability to continue using public content available in the gov.pl domain and makes it incompatible with Wikimedia projects.
