I think people need to realize that they simply cant afford to be tired of fighting this, because this will be an ongoing fight the rest of their lives waiting for them to slip up once.
One tragedy, one stream of exciting events, one slippage, and this gets sailed through and never reverted.
People get angry at the idea like “why should I have to care so much! This is bullshit!” and its like, just because it is bullshit does not mean you can stop dealing with it.
If you don’t get the type of politician who is influenced into doing such things out of office, you just have to face this.
Almost always, terrible policies get put on the table because a good portion of people allow themselves to be tricked by some “look at that poorer/more brown person than you. They are the problem” rhetoric. It happens everywhere and I think people just acting like this is some separate, unrelated issue is part of why fights against awful policies never stop.
You can float a turd with bigotry attached.
See you guys next week!
The thing with chat control is that people seem to keep bringing it back up after a while.
What are the details about this? Not really apparent from the links

I guess this is an addendum to this proposal to clarify that these rules dont classify as making scanning mandatory.
Yea i read that, but isn’t this post about that not being an issue anymore?? // Edit: I mean in particular Patrick Breyer was been critical about the revised proposal, so him posting this now suggests that something new has happened?
Yes and the new thing that happened is the section “17a” shown in this post i would assume.
