A shocking backroom deal is underway to revive Chat Control 1.0 this Friday — and on Monday 29 June, the final trilogue for permanent mass scanning takes place. We face a double-attack on private communication. Take two minutes now: e-mail your MEPs and Permanent Representation to stop this!

Remove every politician who votes for this under the scummy backroom dealings.
I’m so surprised the EU is pushing this considering how much effort they’ve put into pretending to care about digital privacy and passing all sorts of consumer protections, seems pretty obvious it was just a front and they want to spy on people just as much as the US, Russia or China does.
It’s just a few people that really want this. The rest absolutely doesn’t want this.
I’m more than sure it’s Peter Thiel pushing this behind the curtains.
Why are backroom deals even a thing? It’s decision-making of representatives, not a fucking company.
If it quacks like a duck…
EDIT to clarify: the EU was originally the union of Coal and Steel. Not too surprising it turned out this way.
Haha what you on about. The EU have declined this over and over.
The reason it keeps coming up is because the EU is a democracy, where every member state can propose things.
Your critisism is towards the few politicians proposing this. Not the EU, who, so far, has been on our side.
Because companies are people too and are allowed speech.
I know this is Europe and not America but it doesn’t seem to matter where in the world its happening, that sentiment rings true.
Companies aren’t people though. I have never seen a company go to prison.
Are you aware of citizens united?
Yes I am aware of that travesty. Ridiculous.
So then legally companies are people. It is a travesty. It is insane. But it’s also reality.
Don’t see how this excuses secret talks.
I’m not excusing anything. I’m starting the reason why its happening. Its a problem and should be dealt with.
These politicians need to be investigated, the shady way things are being conducted, the exclusion for themselves, the persistence on the subject after it being blocked by parliament multiple times and the way they twist and shape the narrative to make it more palatable is really suspicious.
