#stop chat control

The EU wants to implement an even worse legislation called Chat Control, in which a trained AI will scan every single one of your messages and photos before they're even sent. They want to destroy end-to-end encryption and scan every single one of your messages in the name of "child protection" from predators.

They want to end privacy with the excuse of protecting children, giving them the possibility to utilize this legislation for far worse. From political expression to free speech, this legislation could put an end to all of it. Everybody in the EU will be affected. You, your family, your friends, your personal feelings and ideas. They will see everything.

If you want to fight it, please, i ask you to visit this website and contact your representatives with a written email, show them the population is against this.

Remember one thing: THEY'RE voting. NOT us. This is not what our democracy says. We've got 2 weeks to do the biggest push against this law. You have to act NOW.

Belgium now supports ChatControl in principle—although it promised differently to it’s citizens.

Latvia is undecided, however they are waiting for national support and assess the ChatControl text positively.

Italy is now undecided and expressed doubts about the new CSAM section now included in the scope.

Again,

If you’re an EU citizen, please please please email your MEPS.

If you’re an EU citizen and speak one of the languages of a country that is not your own, email those MEPs but state that their voice also impacts you.

If you’re not an EU citizen, spread the message.

We cannot let them pass Chat Control! Privacy is a basic human right and it should be respected. Nobody wanted Chat Control. Same applies to Age Verification or Digital ID. We don’t need it. What we need is parental controls to be actually used, better education for the kids on online safety and we need to teach them about the dangers on the internet. And we need parents to actually parent their kids. Instead of treating the whole continent as potential criminals, let’s focus on the actual predators who are known to be predators and make sure they don’t lay their hands on a child ever again. And the social media/internet ban for those under 16 is a bad idea too. Like, teenagers are a big part of the internet. Also excluding them will create more problems, such as an abuse victim not being able to contact someone because they’re under the age of 16. Or it will cause problems when they will want to research things for their homework. There a plenty of things wrong with this. So, let’s keep fighting. Don’t let them take away our rights to privacy, under the guise of "protecting children". Keep fighting and keep the pressure on them. Let the backlash hit even harder.

The EU Council appear ready to approve Chat Control. This must be stopped.

To highlight the corruption behind the proposal, Mullvad VPN now present "And Then?"
