So @European Commission president #VonDerLeyen has caved into pressure from the German #CDU #CSU government and car industry: She proposed yesterday to axe her own #GreenDeal flagship that was supposed to end the sales of combustion engine cars by 2035. Her unconvincing blah blah press release blathers of #innovation, #CleanMobility and #competitiveness in order to hide what it really is: a subsidy for #FossilFuel billionaires paid for with the #health of our children. #ClimateJustice #ClimateCrisis
RE: Totally agree to be pissed about #ChatControl and Yes to direct that anger at the @European Commission. At the same time, I think it's important to understand that the Commission is not one unified block. It's a huge institution, and totally possible that the Directorate-General for Home Affairs promotes breaking #encryption while DG Justice attempts to protect #democracy and folks who drafted the original #DSA in DG Connect try to defend Europeans' free expression rights from #BigTech overreach.
