oh, you mean the #BackdoorPlan that the EU comission calls ProtectEU and wants others to call it as well?
One of the great wins for privacy advocates is the fact that everybody have heard about #ChatControl and nearly nobody knows the name that the EU commission wants us to use. Let's call it #BackdoorPlan and before it sticks one can write #BackdoorPlan (a.k.a ä. protectEU)
