They are currently voting on amends to the regulation. The “Chat Control” proposal would legalise scanning of all private digital communications, including encrypted messages and photos. This threatens fundamental privacy rights and digital security for all EU citizens.

        Highly unlikely, because besides being corrupt to the core, the CDU are a bunch of authoritarian bastards who will happily vote for any dystopian police state bullshit even without being paid for it.

          Which makes it strange, doesn’t it? If they are so dystopian, who paid them to not to vote for that? Pretty much all the shady financial supporters should be for chat control and only dystopian parties didn’t vote for it while allegedly progressive party did.

          That is so weird to see ngl.

            I don’t even know anymore what progressive is supposed to mean, it’s thrown around just like every other political bullshit word.

            Also, the SPD has been a copy of the CDU in red for decades. From them, I expected that vote. The unexpected really is the CDU.
