Chat Control Update: EU Parliament Decides That Your Private Messages Must Not Be Scanned!
Chat control - one of the worst EU plans that is also being described as a surveillance monster - must be stopped. And the EU Parliament has just decided to do so! In a historic agreement on the EU Commission's Child Sexual Abuse Regulation (CSAR) the European Parliament wants to remove chat control requirements and safeguard secure encryption. The decision came after extensive backlash against the original proposal from technology and security experts, to international scientists and to citizens across Europe. This is a great win for our right to privacy and for upholding our democratic values in Europe, but the fight continues!

Privacy win: EU Bans Personalised Ads on Facebook and Instagram
Meta - the tech giant from Silicon Valley that is heavily criticized for privacy violations - is finally seeing some real headwind; at first only from Norway, but now also from the European Union. Started with a fine of only $90,000 a day, the small country of Norway has taken on the tech giant. Now the EU follows this path, which could lead to fines of up to 4% of Meta's global turnover for non-compliance.

Chat Control Criticism: Why the EU CSAM Scanning Plans Must Fail.
The Council of EU Member States has postponed the final vote on the Child Sexual Abuse Regulation (CSAR), which had been scheduled for Oct. 19th - which is the second postponement already. EU countries simply can't get an agreement on this highly controversial draft, which then - even if EU Member States come to an agreement eventually - also needs to be discussed in the EU Parliament. This is great sign that the regulation, also dubbed chat control and one of the most criticized EU laws ever, might fail.

With freedom of speech under fire from increasing surveillance around the globe our basic human rights - the right to privacy and freedom of expression - are trampled upon in too many ways, even in Western democracies.

The Online Safety Bill just passed - with the option to break encryption anytime. Britain needs to update its "playbook for dictators"!
The Online Safety Bill was passed this week in the House of Parliament, and will most likely become law this autumn. While politicians before passing the law stated that they will not force tech companies to scan for abuse material if encrypted until "feasible" technology to do so becomes available, the clause that gives the government the power to break encryption anytime is still included in the final version of the bill. This is a severe threat to everybody's privacy online.
