The EPP is trying (again) to beautify the mass tracking of Europe

Already on Thursday "Chat Control 1.0" may return to the agenda of the European Parliament, although the MEPs have already voted for Marketa Gregova’s amendment clearly stating that the monitoring of private conversations can only be possible if there is reasonable suspicion and permission from a law enforcement authority

Civil society has already pushed this monster off the agenda of the European Parliament once, please, if you’re not tired yet, contribute as much as you need to

Sample letter
"Dear Member of the European Parliament,

I am writing to you regarding the upcoming 2026. March 26 voting on the proposal to extend the so-called Chat Control Regulation (EU) 2021/1232.

While protecting children online is essential, any measures to tackle child sexual exploitation material must fully respect the fundamental rights of the EU Charter, including the right to privacy and secure communication.

Therefore, I respectfully urge you to support the proposal only if the amendment submitted by the member of the European Parliament Markéta Gregorova is accepted. This amendment introduces an essential safeguard: restrictions on privacy would only be permitted in specific cases, in the case of reasonable suspicion and with the permission of a competent judicial authority.

Such an approach would ensure that law enforcement investigations are focused on specific suspects identified by the court, rather than allowing widespread or indiscriminate violations of the right to privacy.

The protection of minors online and the protection of fundamental rights should go hand in hand. Targeted, court-approved measures are more effective and more compatible with European values ​​and the rule of law than unauthorized surveillance of all Europeans.

Thank you for your attention to this important issue.

Sincerely, {NAME LAST NAME}"

When writing a letter:
1. Write in your own words, you don’t need to know the intricacies of the law, just say that it’s important not to violate people’s right to privacy without a legitimate reason

1. Write the subject of the letter in your own words, otherwise it will end up in the spam folder

2. Send letters with the same text to each MEP separately, not to all at once

3. Write even to the devil himself, because the devil’s voice is also important
