#ChatControl 1.0 is supposed to expire in April, but the European Commission wants to allow companies the indiscriminate scanning of private messages for two more years.

For multiple years at #FreedomNotFear, participants discussed that this is disproportionate mass surveillance and should be stopped. Activists are now calling on members of the European Parliament to reject the extension proposed by the Commission. What about you?

We are looking for more co-organisers to join the #FNF26 team!

#FreedomNotFear is an annual self-organised conference on privacy and digital rights. People from across Europe and beyond come together in Brussels to advocate for freedom in the digitalized world, plan actions against attacks on civil liberties and increasing surveillance, and seek discussions with decision-makers.

Interested? Find more information here and don't hesitate to reach out!

some remaining rumors from #FreedomNotFear #fnf25 #fnf
—to take in mind for #fnf26 ...😎

(ps. @vishnee uses windows 7 !!!)

#FreedomNotFear 2025 was a great experience in Brussels again. More than 90 participants from various countries joined the (un-)conference and organised workshops on the digital rights topics of their choice.

Many of us then visited the European Parliament together or scheduled individual meetings with policy-makers to advocate for democracy and fundamental rights in an increasingly digitalised world.

We look forward to reconvene as #FNF26 next year!
