🇪🇺🚨 Next Tuesday, a dirty deal on #ChatControl 2.0 looms, allowing PERMANENT mass scanning of our private chats (so-called #SearchPlans). 😱 Speak up and email your MEPs NOW to stop this: ℹ️ chatcontrol.wtf ✍️ fightchatcontrol.eu/?level=national…

Screenshot of an info page (chatcontrol.eu) warning about “Chat Control 2.0.” A highlighted line says a potentially final and decisive trilogue takes place on Tuesday, 29 September. It warns EU governments want “search plans” to scan “parts of a service” (e.g., all group chats or all EU users), effectively mass scanning of private chats. It cites that the Council’s own Legal Service warned this could be “general and indiscriminate” and likely illegal. It also warns about keeping the “voluntary” Chat Control 1.0 as a loophole, mentioning high false positives and cases affecting minors.

This is unacceptable. The Google Play app review process now regularly takes longer than a week. I understand that the pipeline is clogged with AI slop, but #Google needs to prioritize #Android apps that have been around for 12+ years and push updates only once a month.
