@projectmoon @Tutanota because a big company of mass scanning have brib.... lobyed via fake "protect the children" non profit, to make this happen.
So all the politics you see push as hard as possible are brib.... lobyed.
Have I got this right?
You are saying ""The EU (still) wants to..." when in fact the EU doesn't want to, but some small faction is trying to get them to implement it?
Sorry, should have replied to the OP, not you! Not enough coffee yet!
It's misrepresentation, then. Or scare-mongering.
@Walrus
No problem!
Can you elaborate on the latter?
I agree with their campaign against chat control. But saying the EU wants it, when it's just some pressure group (or whatever they are) trying to force it through, is not right.
@Walrus
This is a bit understandable interpretation, if the EU Parliment president wants to force CC and 23 of 27 member states want it.
But I agree that's a generalisation and that's bad, as you say.
@dzwiedziu Roberta Metsola is the President of the Parliament. Typically this figure doesn't have much power.
The President of the Commission is Ursula Von Der Leyen.

@MurrayWindripper @Tutanota
Yup, also true.
People can be trusted to *try* to act in the best interests of them and their community.
But often act in somebody else's best interests.
e.g. Maga
Or just act stupidly.
@Tutanota Oh my ####### lord and holy big-tech ### licking.
Time to sent a few emails then.

Tuta has been a staunch fighter in resisting AI features in their application, as they have posted on their blog in several instances or also on their Mastodon. However, upon scrolling the repo, I ...

Fucking again? Already??? Ugh.
@Tutanota I don't understand the 'score' for each European parliament member on the website https://fightchatcontrol.eu
When I check the profile of a Dutch PvdA (thus S&D) representative it says 'supports'. The contrary of what one would expect.
But in the details it says 'Chat Control 1.0 Extension - supports' and 'Chat Control 2.0 - Opposed'
What is this about?
@rrr @Tutanota
In March, all Dutch S&D MEPs voted against a proposal by the Greens/EFA to withdraw the vote on Chat Control 2.0, which is why they are listed as ‘supports’. https://www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document/PV-10-2026-03-25-RCV_EN.pdf
A day later, almost everyone from PRO voted against Chat Control 1.0. https://mepwatch.eu/10/vote.html?v=189270&country=nl
If you have confirmation that the MEP is against #ChatControl, you can forward it to: contact[at]fightchatcontrol.eu
@rrr
I would recommend taking a look at these timelines:
- https://fightchatcontrol.eu/#timeline
- https://www.patrick-breyer.de/en/posts/chat-control/#timeline
Chat Control 1.0 and 2.0 refer to the sequence of the proposals, but more importantly, to the content of the bill.
1.0 was active for five years in the form of voluntary scanning by social media platforms. Its extension was rejected in March.
2.0 was a proposal introduced in 2022 that would have made the scanning of emails and private messages mandatory.
@Tutanota Wenn Verschlüsselung verboten wird, dann kommunizieren Kriminelle trotzdem verschlüsselt. Normale Bürger sind dann im Internet entblößt und stellen ihr Privatleben zur Schau.
