@HowTheyVoteEU @aetios @Tutanota
Looks like you need to find the "Amendments" section at top of [1] to find Amendment 34 (Am 34) [2], which passed by 307 vs 306. IIUC, Am 34 put strong restrictions requiring specific justification to justify spying, and forbidding spying that bypasses E2EE.
IIUC, if the vote on the overall Regulation (EU) 2021/1232 had passed, then thanks to Am 34, the regulation would have hypothetically been weakened.

@Tutanota This is great! Question, where are you getting the picture from? I'm checking the EU website and the difference seems to be quite bigger that 1 MP (lucky us) https://www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document/A-10-2026-0040_EN.html#_section4
that's all gibberish in this report.
seriously, who understand that convoluted crap?

@HowTheyVoteEU @aetios @Tutanota Another question: Where do you get the title for a proposition from? I couldn't find it on the europarl website, and I thought it is pretty strange to add the purpose of a proposal (here: to "combat online child sexual abuse") in the title.
@lumiukko Great question! It’s the official title of the legislative procedure the vote belongs to: https://oeil.europarl.europa.eu/oeil/en/procedure-file?reference=2025/0429(COD)
We use that as a fall-back, until all data from Parliament has been uploaded. This is also why you might see this changing at some point.
We don’t editorialize titles or hand-pick them.

@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.

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 At least until they want to try again, they're pretty relentless about pushing snooping charters through.

I imagine it would be complicated, but it would be really useful to have a list of elected representatives who didn't vote like most of their party. -

@Tutanota I'm happy and incredibly disappointed that it hadn't passed by just ONE.
This is frightening that it has so much support.

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.)

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47529646@Tutanota i have read up on it, thanks for the clarification! it's still impressive (and kind of funny) that that specific vote came out successful by *1* vote though

@Tutanota "You did it!" until they decide that 3rd time's the charm.
