@EUCommission
“Reduce civil rights, reuse #ChatControl , recycle the same old think-of-the-children talking points”. Got it.

On #GlobalEncryptionDay 🔒 we stand strong against encryption backdoors! 💪

We've just fought #ChatControl & we'll continue to fight wherever #encryption is under threat. But today we'd like to celebrate that 61% of all Tuta emails are sent end-to-end encrypted - a huge win for privacy. 🔥

@echo_pbreyer, following the chat control proposal being taken off the table now one of the coalition parties of the Danish goverment withdraws its support for #ChatControl.

That weakens the position of the Danish minister of justice. Unlikely that he will make another extreme proposal under the Danish presidency of the Council.

One of the three parties in the Danish coalition government now openly opposes general and indiscriminate scanning of private communications and breaking encryption ( #ChatControl). They want time to consider a new approach. https://www.dr.dk/nyheder/politik/moderaterne-tilslutter-sig-kritikere-af-dansk-chatkontrol-forslag

The Danish Minister of Justice still has a mandate from 2023 to support the Commission's proposal. But with the public statement today, the majority in Parliament behind the mandate is gone. The opposition will likely demand a new committee vote.

@EUCommission Small price to pay for #ChatControl, right? Safe... While someone is looking at you PERSONAL communication! Just like former socialist regimes.

As largely expected, #ChatControl will soon be back.

Voted down several times already, last time just a couple of weeks ago, Denmark is now trying to bring it up again and reach a deal by December.

Let that sink in. Europe has many priorities on its table right now. And yet the EU Parliament is stuck discussing the same thing again and again because some governments really love surveillance.

Other topics - the war in Ukraine, support for Gaza, the environmental crisis, the loss of productivity and growth, the stagnating birth rates, the threat of the US sanctions on one side and China’s aggressive exports in response that pose a further threat to the competitiveness of EU economies - all take a backseat.

Spying on citizens’ conversations and weakening privacy for everyone is so important that it’s worth to slow down progress on everything else and discuss the same thing 3 times in a year until it gets through.

Had we shown the same determination on Ukraine and Gaza, we could have ended those wars much earlier.

After dropping the #chatcontrol proposals EU governors could next ask themselves why they have, in all of the EU's history, never provided such a pleasant and informative, adaptive and fast user interface to access democratic representatives and governments of EU member countries ... as the one https://fightchatcontrol.eu provides -- done mostly by a single person on personal funding. Go figure.

@Tutanota

For your information, the United Nations is opposed to Chat Control!

#ChatControl

@Tutanota And you know what's worst about all this, after delving even deeper into the subject? That it would de facto be the end of *all* privacy 🚫🔐 Because, in reality, this law assumes the scanning of everything sent from our device, not just messages, as is usually said. That's the worst part. That this law normally seems bad because it will scan our messages. But the truth is, this law is the devil because it will scan everything

#ChatControl #FightChatControl #StopChatControl

@Tutanota
It is not even able to scan for harmful content.
It is impossible to differentiate between legitimate nudes or abusive ones.
As well as it is impossible to differentiate grooming vs flirting simply by the chat content.
#chatcontrol is a huge scam!!
Only practical use-case is mass surveillance and information control.

Today is the day Mr. Hummelgaard wanted to push through a vote on Chat Control in the EU Council. But he failed! 🎉 

However, Chat Control will be back, so let's look at what this law means for everyone, not just here in Europe:

#ChatControl is nothing but a Trojan Horse for citizens and businesses in Europe. Why?
