RE: https://mastodon.social/@Tutanota/116295357295296383
One vote. By ONE FUCKING VOTE.
(Now, I don't know if the vote was a "yes for chat control" and it needed more than a simple majority to pass, or if it was a "no for chat control" and the yes votes just scraped by. Those are very different things. But still.)
@adriano Not quite, there were two votes, sorry we got that mixed up when posting. Please check here for a detailed explanation of what happened:

You did it! 🥳
European Parliament just decided that Chat Control 1.0 must stop.
This means on April 6, 2026, Gmail, LinkedIn, Microsoft and other Big Techs must stop scanning your private messages in the EU. #PrivacyWins
@Tutanota "You did it!" until they decide that 3rd time's the charm.

@Laurielle AM34 passed with 307 votes and the final text only got 228. The 80 votes lost (mostly among Greens, Left, Renew) were presumably people who voted for the amendment not because they liked it but because they knew EPP wouldn't like it. 157 MEPs in the EPP voted against the amendment and 137 ended up voting against the final text once it passed.
@nemobis Thanks!

@Tutanota And as we all know, corporations never do profitable things if they're illegal.

@Tutanota @HowTheyVoteEU it’s good but i don’t know why people that represents my country in 70% has voted to push it. I hate polish goverment
@invisibleghost777 @Tutanota @HowTheyVoteEU what can I say? Amongst the Italian MEPs, the only ones who voted against it were the communists and the Lega, which is a party literally founded on racism as an ideology. WTF!
ALL the members of the Democratic Party voted in favour. I repeat myself, WTAF!!!

@Tutanota @HowTheyVoteEU
Je remarque : beaucoup d'élus français ont voté pour 🤬
Étonnament, Knafo s'est abstenue.
Glucksmann n'a pas voté
Morano a voté contre
@gboussard @Tutanota @HowTheyVoteEU Ça m’étonne aussi, tellement c’est taillé par et pour eux, mais il semblerait que les fascistes soient contre ce truc (comme en Italie). Peut-être parce qu’ils auraient pigé que ça s’appliquerait AUSSI à eux (et ce serait donc pour ça que ça ne cesse d’être repoussé à chaque fois que ça revient sur la table), cet espionnage généralisé ?

@Tutanota @HowTheyVoteEU Claire Fita (Occitanie, France) voted for the extension, and she belongs to the "Progressive Alliance of Socialists and Democrats". What's the problem? I'll let you find the link between this vote and progressivism, or socialism, or even democracy... I don't think there is one.

@Tutanota why are you showing the amendment vote (which was close, yes) instead of the actual vote to reject extension of voluntary Chat Control (which was anything but close)?
