We need to do something against this. The EU plans to apply a law for a chat control in the territory. The approval say that all the chats and the emails would be send to the government to do AI scanning to in fact “find the children abuses”, even when using apps with end-to-end encryption (the EU will ask the services to open their secrets keys… we know that Microsoft, Google and Facebook have already agreed to this. On the other hand Signal for example had said that they would leave the EU if this law will be applied). We need to counter this, because this restrict the privacy and the security of the citizens. Even if you’re not living in the EU, you should take a look because that could encourage others to do the same! Please take a look of the situation and make you your own idea of the case. Find out here the votes results for now, by countries and more… mepwatch.eu
Some others organizations criticized the approval, a open letter/petition was posted here : globalencryption.org
PS : I know that this was posted on the community a bit before (https://lemmy.world/post/16093632) but I think this is really important and the people should know it. That’s a really regrettable decision for the population. thx

Well… fuck
Maybe try getting an MEP for Greens/EFA or the Left?
In Poland it’s not great either… But I’m positively surprised that 3 guys from PiS voted against it. That gives us 4 to 41. Not great, as I said before…
I’m relieved that the group I wanted to vote was against. I’m frightened that it was the only one against in France 😱
Which group in France is against? I consider making this issue a top priority for choosing who I vote for.
80% for, as in “in favour of scanning”, or am I misinterpreting something?
No, I think that’s corrext because our conservative CDU/CSU party voted in favor and we all know how those ultra-conservative christians vote.
At least it reinforced my preferred party…
Isn’t that the vote for chat control 1.0?
if I’m reading this correctly, it’s from April 2024, which was after the previous version was rejected.
Isn’t it to vote to renew chat control 1.0?
No, it’s from 2024
Yea, I mean the vote to renew chat control 1.0
In that case, I’m not sure
