In a sensational turn of events in the fight against Chat Control, a majority in the European Parliament voted today to end the untargeted mass scanning of private communications. In doing so, the Parliament firmly rejected the error-prone and unconstitutional surveillance practices of recent years.
They (the Greens/EFA and the Pirate Party in particular) did a great job, but I wouldn’t be surprised if the people in favour of Chat Control find a way to strike back. But either way counter balance in politics proved why we the people need it (I’m looking at you USA, China, Iran, Russia, and other countries run by authoritarian regimes).
