Positive update on #ChatControl. The EU's member states are set to officially agree to delete forced mass scanning orders (which could undermine encryption) this week!

This puts the protection of civil liberties in a much better situation for final negotiations with the EU Parliament.

However, it doesn't mean that all the proposal's issues have been solved - we're especially worried about the threat of forcing message apps, email services and app stores to perform risky age verification.
