LA UE ha decidido hacer su propia versión del día de la marmota: están volviendo a traer Chat Control (lo de poner a una IA a leer todos los mensajes, incluso privados y encriptados). La web https://fightchatcontrol.eu/ ayuda a contactar a vuestros eurodiputados para decirles (otra vez) que por ahí no es #fightchatcontrol #chatcontrol #stopchatcontrol

Avevamo ragione, come sempre, nel comunicare che fino ad Aprile 2026 il chat control sarebbe tornato a massacrarci l'esistenza! A molti di voi potrebbe non interessare ma consegnare i nostri dati a Big Tech, far indebolire la cifratura dei certificati ssl e stravolgere le regole per un controllo di massa anche no!

Swiss surveillance could become worse than US

If passed, chat, email & VPN providers from #Switzerland must:

🚨 Log IP addresses
🚨 Ask for ID upon sign up
🚨 Decrypt data upon request

Swiss Bundesrat is still discussing this draft bill, decision will likely be made in 2026.

Let's fight for #privacy! 👉 https://tuta.com/blog/switzerland-surveillance-plan

@Tutanota Why do I get the feeling that lately, in so many countries, new regulations are popping up with only one purpose - to erode privacy 🔓? It feels like a bad joke. I can't keep up anymore.

I wish I could fight them all at once, put pressure everywhere 🌍, no matter where I live. But I don't have the time. I'm already drowning in an endless to-do list.

Why couldn't the government set a different deadline? Why are they so determined to push this through? My mind can't wrap around it I just hope they come to their senses and never implement it 🙏

DON'T GIVE UP HOPE!
REMEMBER!

this isn't being snuck in through the back gate because they want to.

they HAD to sneak this in through the back gate, because a month ago, we made damn sure they couldn't get in through the front.

THAT is a victory in and of itself.

we got the german government to block the initial bill in october.

THAT is a victory in and of itself.

MORE MEPS IN FRANCE OPPOSE CHAT CONTROL THAN THEY DO SUPPORT IT!

THAT is a victory in and of itself.

keep sending emails to MEPs!
keep fighting for our privacy!

let's END this shitty bill!

https://fightchatcontrol.eu

The image shows a summary of the French MEP positions on fightchatcontrol.eu.

It shows that a whopping 43 MEPs oppose chat control, as compared to the 38 MEPs that support it. This potentially means the French gov't doesn't have enough MEPs to push it through. And it may be that MEPs have a free vote, so more will join them on the day.

That is a huge achievement. — The image shows a summary of the French MEP positions on fightchatcontrol.eu.

Chat Control

En résumé : le scan de échanges serait seulement « volontaire » pour les services concernés, mais l'article 4 du projet révisé ouvre la porte à une obligation pour les fournisseurs de services de prendre « toutes les mesures appropriées pour réduire les risques ». Cette formulation imprécise peut être interprétée comme une possible obligation de scanner les messages privés, y compris pour les services chiffrés de bout en bout.

Ce n’est pas vraiment dit dans le texte, mais l’imprécision du texte alarme. On va voir ce que ça va devenir.

« Chat control », c’est le nom usuel du projet européen, qu’on peut qualifier de « surveillance généralisée », avec comme objectif la lutte contre la pédocriminalité.

Techniquement, version simple : un mouchard obligatoire dans chaque smartphone. Tu veux envoyer une image à un correspondant par Signal ? avant son envoi (et donc son chiffrement) elle est analysée (algo, IA) et si elle est louche, elle est envoyée à Big Brother.

Le projet est vieux de plusieurs années, avec une accélération l’été dernier. Un vote était prévu le 14 octobre, il a été reporté, et ça devrait revenir en décembre.

Chat Control — Le projet révisé, sous l’impulsion de la présidence danoise, semble avoir été adopté sans nouveau changement par la commission en charge. C’est l’étape qui précède le vote par le Conseil de l’UE.

Après Patrick Breyer, les lanceurs d’alerte du Chat Control, sont maintenant nombreux à s’alarmer.

@chatcontrol 😱 No! This isn't really happening! Where did this sudden change come from?! Why do I feel like with each day the pressure increases, it only seems to get better, when in reality, it's getting worse?!

There was a moment when I was certain that when Denmark withdrew the idea, that was the end of these stupid ideas for this term. It never occurred to me that it was really just a cover to try to push it through in some less obvious way. I didn't think they'd stoop to such tactics.

But I'll say what I always say in such cases: We have to fight! We have to protest! ✊ We can't let this get through! Because if it does, there will be no point in protecting privacy. It scans everything. All of you.

It will destroy all the great communication solutions that I value not only for privacy but also for functionality 💔 It will destroy all of us.

Go to https://fightchatcontrol.eu! Write anything that expresses your disagreement. You don't have to put in the effort; just send the default message; it's always better than nothing.

I hope that this time we will not win the battle but the whole war! 🙏

Fight Chat Control

@chatcontrol@mastodon.social · 3 months ago

What happened today?

Behind closed doors, the Law Enforcement Working Party group approved the revised Danish Chat Control compromise with broad support. While mandatory scanning had officially been dropped, Article 4 of the new text reframes and reintroduces it by obliging providers of e-mail, chat, and messenger services to take “all appropriate risk mitigation measures”. This effectively forces providers to scan all messages, including private, end-to-end encrypted content.

The same article outlaws anonymous communication by requiring every citizen to verify their age before accessing a service, kneecapping whistleblowers, journalists, political activists, and people seeking help who depend on anonymity. Article 6 further imposes a digital house arrest and would ban minors from installing software which comes with a significant risk of grooming, such as WhatsApp, Instagram, and online games like Roblox.

What happens next?

The legislation now moves to the Coreper (Committee of Permanent Representations) for approval. Without major political objections, the Council will formally adopt its position. At this stage, both the Council and Commission unite in imposing mass surveillance on all 450 million citizens of the European Union and we enter a rushed trilogue. Unfortunately, while the mandate of the European Parliament does not suffer from the same flaws, the Parliament is traditionally known for giving in.

What now?

We raise our voices. Louder. — What happened today? Behind closed doors, the Law Enforcement Working Party group approved the revised Danish Chat Control compromise with broad support.

The "Chat Control" proposal would mandate scanning of all private digital communications, including encrypted messages and photos. This threatens fundamental privacy rights and digital security for all EU citizens. — Copie d’écran.

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?

🧵 (1/7)

Trojan horse labeled with "Protect Children" while "Mass Surveillance" sits inside and the "EU Member States" welcome it through the gate.

@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

Heel goed nieuws!

De Duitse overheid heeft na protesten besloten tegen chatcontrole te gaan stemmen. Dit protest werd geleid door Piraat @echo_pbreyer van @piratenpartei

Hierdoor blijft een meerderheid in de EU voorlopig uit zicht, maar ze zullen het ongetwijfeld weer gaan proberen.

We blijven waakzaam!
