Ok, Universe, listen up you shit. Yesterday you took Dolly Parton, aged 80, from us. Today you took Tim Curry, aged 80, from us. A heartfelt FUCK YOU from me and a lot of others for that! But you can make it up to us, you know what we want, damnit!

It's such a dilemma - don't you agree? I felt like this while reading The Calamity Club by Kathryn Stockett. #BookSky

Durch Zufall habe ich gerade mitbekommen, dass die deutschen U 20-Handballerinnen heute in China mit einem 33:26 gegen Dänemark Weltmeisterinnen geworden sind. Ich finde, das sollten mehr Leute wissen.

🚨 🚨 🚨 Take action NOW: fightchatcontrol.eu
In an unprecedented move with a flagrant disregard for democracy and her own colleagues, European Parliament President Roberta Metsola is attempting to force through the twice-rejected "voluntary" mass scanning legislation.

In parallel, this Monday, the final trilogue on the permanent Chat Control 2.0 legislation begins: Council still wants to revoke your right to privacy and read your messages.

We are witnessing a two-front assault: Metsola overriding your MEPs, and Council pushing permanent mass scanning.

Take action: contact your MEPs now!

Fight Chat Control @fightchatcontrol.bsky.social · 12/11/2025
What happened today?

Behind closed doors, the Law Enforcement Working Party group approved the revised Danish Chat Control compromise with broad support. While mandatory scanning had officially been dropped, Article 4 of the new text reframes and reintroduces it by obliging providers of e-mail, chat, and messenger services to take “all appropriate risk mitigation measures”. This effectively forces providers to scan all messages, including private, end-to-end encrypted content. 

The same article outlaws anonymous communication by requiring every citizen to verify their age before accessing a service, kneecapping whistleblowers, journalists, political activists, and people seeking help who depend on anonymity. Article 6 further imposes a digital house arrest and would ban minors from installing software which comes with a significant risk of grooming, such as WhatsApp, Instagram, and online games like Roblox.

What happens next?

The legislation now moves to the Coreper (Committee of Permanent Representations) for approval. Without major political objections, the Council will formally adopt its position. At this stage, both the Council and Commission unite in imposing mass surveillance on all 450 million citizens of the European Union and we enter a rushed trilogue. Unfortunately, while the mandate of the European Parliament does not suffer from the same flaws, the Parliament is traditionally known for giving in.

What now?

We raise our voices. Louder.

Important update

Thanks to the sheer volume of citizens raising their voices in opposition, the Danish Presidency has been forced to update its Chat Control compromise text to include the following recital:


"(17a) Nothing in this Regulation should be understood as imposing any detection obligations on providers."


The final proposal 15318/25 containing recital 17a is now heading for Coreper (Committee of Permanent Representations). Once approved, the position formally adopted by Council will thus exclude mandatory scanning. Council is expected to officially adopt its position the 18th or 19th. We should then expect trilogue to commence.

Next steps

While this presents a “quick fix” in response to public pressure that legally is not a good solution, it is a much better position than before and one that can be worked with. The multiple flaws and inconsistencies that remain (e.g. mandatory age verification effectively outlawing anonymous communication and planned “voluntary” mass scanning) can be amended during trilogue with the European Parliament.

While Danish Minister of Justice and Chief Architect of Chat Control Peter Hummelgaard, and Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen, are likely to attempt an expedited process, a deal is unlikely to be reached in December. They will likely try to complete the deal in Q1 of 2026. As negotiations commence, contact your MEPs and let them know how you would like them to vote and protect your codified rights to privacy.
