@chatcontrol In a discussion yesterday about something happening in the UK, it was pointed out that MPs are more likely to ignore protest emails than protest letters. Because a letter requires someone to open it, log it, scan it and add it to a database. So let's not email our protests to our governments and MEPs. Let's not even print letters. We need to deluge them with hand written protests.

@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! 🙏 @EUCommission #ChatControl #FightChatControl #StopChatControl #CSAR #CSAM #EU #EuropeanUnion #Europe #Encryption #Privacy #Security #Cybersecurity #Freedom #Democracy #HumanRights #Surveillance #StopSurveillance

@chatcontrol so time for civil unrest/disobedience? can't wait for all the leaked messages from the Commission and Council showing how terrible these people are...

@chatcontrol Remember that we all live in democracies and have free elections. Of course they will not try and push something that the public doesnt want. They also wont use propaganda and false narratives to gaslight us into supporting this. They also wont use the law to bypass us. We do live in democracies, right? RIGHT???

@chatcontrol There are also Tor, i2p, Veilid, Tox... There are other alternatives to circumvent mass surveillance. Consider using disposable numbers and an encrypted email alias such as Proton and Simplelogin.

@chatcontrol Okay so The Privacy fundamental right is just a sentence is a pretty piece of paper.

@chatcontrol Signal is the same thing, except that the app is fully encrypted, but breaking the encryption is another story. Simplex and Session are not affiliated with any company, they are e2e, they do not depend on companies or telephone companies, they are fully encrypted, and you do not need a number to register, nor do you need companies.

@chatcontrol We should protest in the streets. These bastards won't stop until they get it approved.

@chatcontrol Gods, the citizens are truly worth nothing. I am worth nothing, it seems.

@chatcontrol @echo_pbreyer We need to repeal this law for once for all! I sent 50+ e-mails to every EU MEPs,i don't know if this is enough. Also, we told them that this thing violates the basic human rights of every european citizen, and still, the Danish Presidency pushes it "for the kids" the lamest excuse for control.Fortunately more people than before know about this so more backlash and pressure for these politicians. #ChatControl #Chatcontrol2

@chatcontrol Again I'm gonna do a PSA for everyone since it's critical for Europe and especially for Germany because that means there will be a dangerous potencial for article 4 (Risikominderung) that WILL definitively not be as harmless as presented by the DP due to it's invasive and flawed AI. It's only a matter of time b4 any fuck ups occur so the only chance we have right now is to RAISE our voices and if possible go on the streets for a massive protest in your country to save privacy.

@chatcontrol All is not lost yet. There is the Shadowsocks tool, which is capable of bypassing the Great Firewall of China, and Proxychains is another valid option. Reading chats is only for telephone companies, and the data is used for tracking, whether it's the internet or cable. When you create an account on WhatsApp or Telegram, what do you use? Your phone number. Why do you think they can track Telegram and WhatsApp users through their phone numbers?

@chatcontrol And don't forget to use a VPN and proxy outside Europe. Proton VPN is a good option, as the company is based in Switzerland and they are very strict about privacy.

@chatcontrol What do we do now?

@chatcontrol The fact that this isn’t compatible with court decisions, existing legislature and common sense clearly isn’t an issue for to the few unelected ones. Not that long ago the internet and new technology used to be exciting and empowering freedom. Now it’s just a tool to enforce the will of the big brother. I’m glad I experienced internet free of this, it’s gonna suck to learn to live offline.

@chatcontrol How was this just sneak this in??? So far as I was aware, the clause for mandated scanning was out and this fiasco was over. And yet...

@chatcontrol This IS illegal. HOW. *HOW*

@chatcontrol not just citizens...

@chatcontrol So they approved it?

@chatcontrol Is there actually a tool to get the postal #address‍es of the representatives in a machine-processable form? It was argued somewhere that writing real letters would make an impact-difference, because the fact that a #letter is physical and needs to be handled (opened, read or just scanned, archived) would leave some more impact than an email which can be physically ignored more easily. #chatcontrol #StopChatcontrol #fightchatcontrol #MEP

the new china is here

@chatcontrol Everything in the European Union, nothing outside the European Union, nothing against the European Union. Il Duce and Stalin both would be applaud this utter obliteration of the very concept of privacy.

@chatcontrol It's a sad day for democracy in EU.
