Dear friends, today is a great day for online privacy!
With an overwhelming 51:2 vote, the EU parliament has decided *AGAINST CHAT CONTROL* proposed by the EU Council. It included warrantless mass surveillance of phones and circumventing end-to-end encryption.
The fight is not over yet.
We will see how the Council adjusts its stance.
🤙
🎉
So they’ll just keep doing it without permission?
How were the 2 votes?
2 zombies️
I'm a little surprised by the numbers to be honest but I'll take it! No chat control in the EU. No need to go full cypherhoodlum just yet.
what's the catch?
Jep.. They don't just give up on increasing surveillance.
Classic two steps forward, one step back?
I'm no expert and not up to date, but this Digital Identity and removal of SSL standard seems to still be rolling forward.
They will do it over the backdoor like always. The Digital ID will be very helpful for them.
Yeah that's some fresh air, in the middle of the sewer EU policies have become.
🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌
Good news about the EU Parliament's decision against chat control and mass surveillance. It's a major win for online privacy and shows the impact of collective efforts and democratic power. Yet, the journey isn't over, as the EU Council's stance is still pending. This reminds us of the importance of continued advocacy for digital privacy and freedom, and to stay active in future discussions.
Government is cancer and democracy is a symptom of it. Pan-national government is cancer².
Better than 2:51. I’ll take it
51:2
Who are two members that wants to read other people's chat?
Great news!! 👏
Like these fucking fake whores
They don’t give a shit about chat or tech as long as they get to justify their deviance hiding behind a closet flag
😉 
Maybe, but you should make it as difficult as possible for them.
Trying to make it difficult for those who tried to defend those who see that as ‘them’ isbthe epiphany of deviance and cowardice.
Let’s talk about this one.
😉
Maybe we can’t, and i have to license to operate as well as they have to.

How is that working today?
A little surprised by the vote numbers, I would have expected more than 2 clowns. Anyway happy.
They will be back
Maybe the council is a job creation measures to keep ppl busy
When’s the vote on reducing existing surveillance?
Do we know who the 2 clowns were that votet in favor?
probably the Netherlands is 1 of them🤣
Interesting...
Is the tide turning in Europe?
Finally, the EU parliament does something that makes sense.

Encryption remains legal in the EU (for now).
Keep an eye out for the enslavement attempts.

Politicians need chat encryption for their legal and especially their illegal activities as much as the next person.
True
Don't the Intelligence organisations do all of those privacy invasive things illegally anyway?
Abolish the EU.
EU Council can fucking go FUCK THEMSELVES!
arent they prob already doing this lol
🥳
