🇩🇪YES! SPD-Justizministerin Hubig blockiert zurzeit deutsche Zustimmung zur grundrechtswidrigen #Chatkontrolle! 🛡️ ➡️ Damit dürfte die Sperrminorität aktuell stehen! ⚠️ ABER: Innenministerium will bis Oktober einen faulen Kompromiss. bundestag.de/presse/hib/kurzme…
🇪🇺YES: Germany is not supporting the EU's #ChatControl bill as proposed! The blocking minority needed to stop this illegal mass surveillance plan seems secured (for now). ✅
🇫🇷OUI : L'Allemagne ne soutient pas le projet #ChatControl de l'UE en l'état ! La minorité de blocage nécessaire pour stopper ce plan de surveillance de masse illégal semble assurée (pour l'instant). ✅
Great! If I sum up the percetage-of-EU-total-population for the 9 countries that are opposing/neutral (pop percents from wikipedia Demographics_of_the_European_Union), that becomes 40.37% of EU pop.
Does that mean that the second condition for Qualified majority, 65% of the total EU population, cannot be reached, even if undecided countries turn in favour?
It's an irony that post-communist countries like Czech Republic, Slovakia or Poland are now opposing this Orwellian nightmare while traditional democracies like France, Sweden or Spain support it ...
Maps like these came up a while ago, too, and I didn't think to write -- even with my mild red/green blindness it looks like everything is one color except for the undecided 😭 Different reds/greens would help a lot 🙏
@ctietze A python script creates the map. It currently reads: "In Favour": "#e31a1c", # Bright red "Not in Favour": "#33a02c", # Green "Undecided": "#1f78b4", # Blue "Other": "#d3d3d3" # Light grey
that’s great, but what I don’t understand is that one rogue country (Hungary) constantly torpedoes decisions that threatens all of EU’s safety and a decision that undermines everybodies privacy can be decided by a simple majority.
EDIT: it seems the Times of Malta article is grossly misleading. lovinmalta.com/opinion/guest-p… I was sent this earlier, it's pissed me off a bit, If papers don't actually report the actual facts on serious issues, what's the point in them?!
The EU’s alarming Chat Control legislation is steaming towards a critical vote on 14th October, 2025. As of today, Maltese MEPs have not rejected the bill outright, and the Sunday Times headline stating that Malta’s MEPs oppose chat control is mislea…
@helioselene Gelukkig dat het voor nu weer van de baan is. Nu zorgen dat het überhaupt niet meer op de agenda gaat komen. En zorgen dat oorzaken van kindermisbruik worden aangepakt.

Anyway; Malta's MEP's oppose chat control, so you can put a green blob just under Sicily 😀
