I know there's a general "cause fatigue" with the current state of the world, and I feel it too.

But in my years working in privacy,
I don't think I've seen anything as terrifying as this European Chat Control proposal. And I'm not even European.

Everyone needs to pay
much more attention and be much more worried and outraged about this.

This proposal is the most dystopian glimpse into a horrible authoritarian future I have seen so far in the West.

It looks dismal, but we can still stop it
if we all work TOGETHER NOW ✊

There isn't much time left though,
so don't put it to next week.

Democracy dies in silence.

🇫🇷L'excuse de la Commission pour #ChatControl ? "On scanne comme un filtre anti-spam, le chiffrement reste intact." Un mensonge ! 🤥 C'est comme si le facteur lisait vos lettres juste avant de vous les livrer.

Les faits par EDRi : https://edri.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Briefing-on-the-fundamental-differences-between-spam-malware-filters-and-CSA-detection-in-private-communications.pdf #StopScanningMe

🇪🇺EU Commission on #ChatControl: "We just scan like a spam filter; your messages are still encrypted." It's a Trojan horse! 🐴 That's like someone reading your letter before it's placed in your mailbox!

EDRi mythbuster: https://edri.org/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/Briefing-on-the-fundamental-differences-between-spam-malware-filters-and-CSA-detection-in-private-communications.pdf #StopScanningMe

🇩🇪EU-Kommission zur #Chatkontrolle: "Wir scannen ja nur wie Spamfilter auch, verschlüsselt wird trotzdem." Trojanisches Pferd! 🐴 Das ist, als würde man eure Post lesen, bevor sie in den Briefkasten kommt!

The final hours. The last chance. But not the last fight.

Today, 🇩🇪 Germany said NO to ChatControl 💥 This could be the turning point 🔄 But it is not the end.

If tomorrow we manage to block this proposal - it will be a victory 🎉 But digital freedom does not defend itself. It must be protected. Every day. In every decision. In every update. In every voice 📢

Now is the time to do everything that is still left:
- Write to your MEP
- Share information 🔁
- Mobilize others 🤝
- Do not stay silent 🤐

Because even if we win tomorrow - it is only the beginning. Because even if we lose - it is not the end.

Freedom does not vanish loudly. It disappears quietly Unless we defend it ✊
