prevent this rule!

GO SEND YOUR MAIL TODAY

dis here is rlli important. we cannot let such legislation pass.

if you live in the EU and care about your messages staying private, between you and your frens, PLEASE send a mail (or multiple mails) to your countries representatives!

we only have 2 months left, but we can still make a change!!!!

visit https://fightchatcontrol.eu/ TODAY to inform yourself and get their mail template!

WE CAN MAKE A CHANGE!

BUT WE MUST TAKE ACTION!

this is not some far off thing. if we dont do something now, we WILL have to live with constant media-checks on most platforms (including end-to-end encrypted ones).

That's super important, because its never about protecting our children, but to install authoritarian control mechanism, that doesn't help them or our police forces as they don't need more tools but more personnel (and interconnections)!
I did my part (for 79 Abgeordnete)

Hell yeah! This is very important, as someone from the UK, I encourage everyone in the EU to speak out against this before you all end up like us.
Thanks for the PSA maria!

Thank you Maria for this important message!

Feels like we need to push back against this sort of shit on the regular these days (and as a EU citizen currently living in the UK, I am getting a double whammy). It is so fucking tiring to repeatedly see such egregious and moronic decisions being made by an increasingly controlling and authoritarian ruling class.
In any case, thanks Maria for bringing attention to it. I don't know whether this is only true for me or not, but I heard about chat control a lot more the first time it was being discussed a few years ago, and I only just learned about this instance now. Unsure why, and if it is actually being talked about less or if I was somehow under a rock, but your PSA is really appreciated regardless.

amazing info image :3

Unfortunally i dont live in eu, so i cant send mail to representatives, but at least they would not be able to scan my messages anyway.
- 5 Eyes has entered the chat

Omg my country is based for once and opposes 😭

isn’t this the plot of animal farm? (particularly)

I never knew how to get my voice out as a civilian. Thanks for the link. I've prepared a general email, but first asked a specific representative for tips. I wonder whether I'll get a response.

Mirror for those of us who can't access catbox?
- heres the image, this time via blahaj.zone <3
  
  I'm not in the eu, but I wish my friends over there luck in fighting this bullshit.

What stops us from using a mathematically secure open source messenger instead of whichever messenger had a software update to do with that law?
- nothing yet.
  but they do plan on somehow making it possible to encrype those messages.... or catch them before they are encrypted...
  i would like to not wait for them to try to-
  
  they could enforce that all devices have OS-level spyware... 1984 stuff.

They should do another ECI
