GM! Today, the European Parliament will vote on Chat Control 2.0 in an urgent procedure, even though it was previously rejected... Therefore there is no real urgency, people have already expressed their positions. But by pushing it this way, a majority of Parliament will need to vote against it. And since absences count as a "yes" vote, and summer has just started, you can imagine... well, these people are villains, and we’re pretty doomed in that sense.

The only good thing? Not much, tbh. We’ll have to carve our way out of this dystopia. So let's keep building 💪

"We cannot expect governments, corporations, or other large, faceless organizations to grant us privacy out of their beneficence. It is to their advantage to speak of us, and we should expect that they will speak." 1993 and yet never so true.

"Chat Control 2.0’s ‘urgent’ revival is pure procedural gaming—forcing votes during low turnout is a global authoritarian tactic. Reminds me of Tehran’s airstrike aftermath, where sidelined dissenters enabled hardliners to push agendas unchecked. Parallel playbooks. https://theboard.wor...

It's outrageous how even after all the times it HAS BEEN REJECTED, they still try to get it passed... https://www.patrick-breyer.de/en/procedural-trick-before-summer-recess-pushes-eu-parliament-towards-capitulation-on-chat-control/

It’s actually extending 1.0, not fully implementing 2.0… yet…

I would reply but they've controlled the chat already...

Since they will approve it anyway sooner or later the real question is: Is it worth fighting to delay the approval? Or should we just let them approve it now to "speed up" the dystopian scenario so that people will be obliged to take action? I'm starting to lean on the second one at this point

Unfortunately, your analysis was spot on: the vote passed precisely because of that mechanism. The motion to reject it won the majority of those present (314 against and 276 in favor), but fell short of the absolute majority required by the urgent procedure. This is living proof of the structural...

Just joined Nostr today because of it… Many people will as well. They can try to prostitute democracy, yet they will only show how much of an authoritarian regime Europe actually is.
