Today at 12:30, European Parliament will vote whether or not to extend the existing temporary derogation which allows voluntary chatcontrol: https://www.europarl.europa.eu/news/en/agenda/weekly-agenda/2026-11#agenda-day20260311:~:text=Proposal%20for%20a%20regulation%20of%20the%20European%20Parliament%20and%20of%20the%20Council%20amending%20Regulation%20%28EU%29%202021%2F1232%20as%20regards%20the%20extension%20of%20its%20period%20of%20application
The LIBE committee decided to reject the proposal due to disagreements https://www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document/A-10-2026-0040_EN.html , but a few days later fractions representing around 397/720 MEPs agreed on changes: https://www.europarl.europa.eu/RegData/seance_pleniere/textes_deposes/prop_resolution/2026/0040/amendements/P10_AMA(2026)0040(001-003)_EN.pdf so the extension will likely pass.

@PrPl if you want offline, KeePassXC and sync with sync thing or something.
Whatâs wrong with Proton or Tuta? They are both the leading private email providers.

hot take: @protonprivacy didnât fail you. YOUR OPSEC failed you.
encryption â anonymity. these are not the same thing and never have been.
Proton did exactly what they said theyâd do - encrypted your emails and complied with lawful Swiss legal orders. thatâs the whole deal. thatâs what you signed up for.
the credit card you used to pay for your âanonymousâ account was never part of the encryption. that was always traceable. that was always a liability.
and hereâs the kicker - Proton literally accepts Monero and cash. they gave you the tools. you chose the Visa.
