#ChatControl proposal failed in the Council of the EU again today! πŸŽ‰ Hungary tried to use its presidency to shame critical governments into agreeing to the proposed mass surveillance by forcing ministers to explain themselves during live-streamed public session. This plan backfired: several countries took the floor to confirm on the record that this would undermine #cybersecurity, attack #encryption with #ClientSideScanning and violate fundamental rights! #StopScanningMe
Read this 🧡 by @npub1x733...mg0r to find out the latest incredible developments on #ChatControl and help to spread the word! Don’t let Orban get away with pressuring governments into agreeing to this unprecedented mass surveillance proposal! #StopScanningMe
Congratulations to our friends in Finland. Following sustained civil society engagement by @npub1d7y8...9vgt and others, the Finnish Parliament has officially sided against the current #Chatcontrol proposal! #StopScanningMe
We have concluded this year's #FreedomNotFear with a visit to the European Parliament. Some of the participants further used the time in Brussels to schedule individual meetings with members of the European Parliament to raise awareness about the topics we discussed during the weekend. Thank you to everyone who joined and contributed their topics & experiences and made #FNF24 possible! πŸ“· Petra Schmidt CC-BY 4.0 @npub1kuep...9ghn image
Like any barcamp, #FreedomNotFear is a self-organizing (un)conference. However, it is safe to say that this year's #FnF24 would not have happened without @npub12kd6...eljj, @npub1l65a...tz2h and Tobias. They have been planning this event for months. Other volunteers have joined the planning team over time. If you can imagine making #FnF25 happen, do talk to them. We need you! Heartfelt thanks go out to Lara who stepped in as a facilitator when it turned out that @npub1yc0h...tlzz would not available this year.
