Today is the day Mr. Hummelgaard wanted to push through a vote on Chat Control in the EU Council. But he failed! 🎉

However, Chat Control will be back.

#ChatControl is nothing but a Trojan Horse for citizens and businesses in Europe. Why?

🧵 (1/7)

Trojan horse labeled with "Protect Children" while "Mass Surveillance" sits inside and the "EU Member States" welcome it through the gate.

We did it: 🇩🇪Germany will OPPOSE Chat Control! 🥳

Thanks everyone for writing to the ministers. 🫶

#ChatControl will not get a majority in the EU Council - at least for now.

🇩🇪 Today we celebrate #GermanUnityDay – a victory over oppression & mass surveillance.

But history warns us: #ChatControl could bring surveillance back at a scale East Germany could only have dreamed of.

Let’s defend freedom & say NO to #ChatControl! ✊
