xeniax ⏚📢📢📢 Urgent call for action against Chat Control!
The EU still wants to pass the infamous "Chat Control" law, that would mandate scanning of all private digital communications, including encrypted messages and photos. This threatens fundamental privacy rights and can transform EU into a digital Gulag. Currently only 3 countries oppose this law, while 15 member states support it and 9 remain indecisive.
This means, the balance can still be shifted! It is very important to influence at least those who are in doubt. For instance, you can contact a MEP (Member of the European Parliament) and demand to oppose to Chat Control.
There is a tool that automates the process of writing and sending such letters:
Please check it out and send at least one letter!
Delta ChatWe are impressed with the new https://fightchatcontrol.eu/ website, and the way it provides all the info needed to engage in distributed diverse action to prevent the EU from preparing the ground for, or sliding into, authoritarianism by breaking end-to-end encryption for everyone. Germany and France are particularly important to engage with and we'll see what we can do from our circles. We don't know the people behind @chatcontrol but big kudos!

Times are changing and it's bad idea to rely on US-owned proprietary services for hosting code, knowledge and software. Today, I'm joining https://codeberg.org/ not just as a user but as a member—actively facilitate adopting alternatives.
As a Berlin based association (German Verein) Codeberg e.V. is well suited especially for open source and free software use.

We were too cautious. It's happening faster than we anticipated and the impacts are going to be worse.
