Update 22:51h: The vote originally scheduled for 14 October will not take place because there is no majority for the proposal. It is likely that the EU Commission will now propose to extend the Chat Control 1.0 regulation currently in force that permits providers to scan our messages (if they choose). An extension of this indiscriminate bulk scanning regime is not acceptable. Scanning under this regulation needs to be targeted and limited to suspects where requested by a judicial authority.
