Hey folks. I do not have a large following and I have no idea if this will make any difference but I'm posting this anyway. I didn't wanna post this but I'm doing it anyway in hopes this will get even a single person to take action.
Chat Control, the bill that would scan all methods of communications, including end to end encrypted ones to to """""protect the children""""" was approved by the Law Enforcement Working Party behind closed doors. If you're an EU citizen you should be furious, as this is extremely undemocratic.

Fight Chat Control's website has all the info you need. While it gives you templates to send emails, calling reps is always more effective. Please don't let them get away with this. Call them every day. Send them messages every day. Flood them with all you have. Give them hell for approving fascist bill. Cause that's essentially what Chat Control is. And don't be fooled. This was never about protecting the children. A job to monitor something like this is a pedophile's dream.
I may live in Norway which isn't a part of the European Union, but I'm technically a EU citizen since I'm a Polish citizen, and even if I weren't I'd still care about this as bills like this always spill over. Look at the UK. Now other countries are considering similar bills. Never think "this will never happen to my country".
Never comply in advance. Take action, and be loud and annoying about it.
