Take action to stop chat control now!
Chat control is back on the agenda of EU governments. EU governments are to express their position on the latest proposal on 23 September. EU Ministers of the Interior are to adopt the proposal on 10/11 October. Latest update of 12 September... In June we managed to stop the unprecedented plan by

@lihram @aral @signalapp It is even more important now do contact the member countries MEPs because we still need to create a blocking minority in the EU council.
One organization in Sweden, @konstellationen, sent some questions to all the parties in the parlament.
Here are the questions translated to English:

Newly leaked Chat Control proposal. The EU governments are to position themselves on the proposal by 23 September. Kamratdataföreningen Konstellationen has emailed a survey with questions about Chat Control to the parties in parliament

And they also encouraged people to email the parties.
Would be nice if more organizations did that

@samuel @lihram @aral @signalapp @konstellationen
I think we need to talk to the Ministry of Interior and Ministry of Justice. The voting will happen on that level. MEPs have nothing to do in this case. It's the representatives from the countries on that level or Coreper II.

@bogo @lihram @aral @signalapp @konstellationen That is true. But in Sweden at least, the minister needs to have the parliament support.
The issue was raised at the Justice Committee’s meeting in the Swedish parliament on 18 June. It was about whether Sweden would stand behind Belgium’s compromise proposal..
However, the goverment was very sneaky and didn't send out documents beforhand. The MEP:s got the info on the meeting. Two parties who are against missed that they should oppose.
