Belgium is going crazy hopping from opposition to support.

It’s disgraceful how hypocritical the Belgian government is, voicing their “concerns” for its citizens and then flipping to supporting the so-called Danish compromise like it is “fair game”. (It’s not)
I can only hope that Germany doesn’t do the same shit.

I told y’all Romania will fall in the pro camp just because it’s a useful tool to fight the ones who don’t take bad legislation quietly aka the teachers who protested awful education reforms.

unpopular opinion: we don’t need to block client-side scanning (which already exists in some form), we need strong laws to prevent government and private authorities to abuse it

Germany: Chat Control? No no. Palantir? Yes, yesy

Pretty weird how under the radar the proposal from us in Denmark has been, I didn’t even know it was going to be a suggestion till it was suggested, and it’s pretty clear most danish MEPS are opposed aswell, feels so out of nowhere…

Look at the huge disparity between “presumed support” and “voiced support” lol. They know what they’re doing. Nothing screams “good faith” like supporting a law while hiding yourself from the public.

This is still just a bunch of random assumptions made by someone who knows not too much about local politics of countries.
Presumed support just groups every Hungarian MEP under 1 umbrella, which is nonsensical the government and the opposition will never vote the same. One of them will either vote the opposite way or abstain.
Just put them in undecided if you know nothing about them.

Bruh, read this out. She writes to me all nicely, then tells me they LOVE the new directive. What?
Hello,
Thank you for your email and for your support of the Fight Chat Control EU campaign.
Just like my Green group in the European Parliament, I have been opposed to this legislative proposal from the European Commission from the beginning.
I particularly share your concern about the serious risks of privacy violations – I completely agree with you on this. My colleague Patrick Breyer, as a member of our group, helped develop Parliament’s position. This states that message scanning should only be permitted for individuals already suspected of crimes and therefore within the framework of a judicial investigation. The mass scanning of encrypted messages from innocent citizens is a red line for me. Instead, my group wants to transform platforms like WhatsApp, Signal and countless other internet channels so that they prevent child abuse as much as possible.
The European member states are divided among themselves and are unable to reach a unified position. Denmark, the current president of Europe, will still try to get member states aligned. Fortunately, there are many countries that are also opposed to this proposal. That’s why your pressure is incredibly important, so that our privacy remains assured and this legislative proposal fails.
Mass surveillance is not the right answer in the fight against the spread of child abuse. We also don’t want a superstate like China that looks over our shoulders and can abuse the system to oppress citizens.
Of course, the welfare and safety of children is a top priority. Our group therefore fully supports the new directive for combating child abuse and sexual exploitation of children, which received quasi-unanimous support from Parliament.
Kind regards,
Sara Matthieu

What does presumed support actually mean? Serious question.
Is it because these MEPs are part of a bloc (like EPP) and somebody else in the block has expressed support.
Or is it an assumption by the person putting together the chart.

Shameful.

Also… Italian people, do some “lobbying” on your own, email and phone your EUMPs and let them know you dont want this crap. You seemingly have a huge undecided number, help them decide!

When you propose bills that don’t affect the voters themselves (in this case politicians being exempt from Chat Control), it’s far more likely people will vote based on how they feel about the proposition instead of considering how it’ll affect their lives or that of others.
Imagine the shock on these politicians’ faces when they leave the political sphere of influence and are ousted for their private communications by the next in line.

The **Tisza party (Hungary) does not support it.** They are undecided as of now. They are waiting on EPP’s response to this.
