Breaking news: #chatcontrol stryks från agendan till dagens COREPER II (representerar för EUs regeringar) möte! Det betyder att Belgien som ordförandeland inte känner att de har tillräckligt stöd för sitt kompromissförslag. Motståndet har effekt och det ger oss lite mer tid.

Fortfarande tid att kampanja!

17 June 1942 | SS men shot 120 Polish prisoners at the Death Wall in #Auschwitz I. They were selected from those deported to the camp from Warsaw, Krakow, Tarnów, Radom, and Lublin.

One of them was a brickmaker from Marki Edward Rabczyński (np. 22869).

One of some 140,000 Poles incarcerated in Auschwitz.
Learn about the creation of the camp, reasons for the incarceration of Poles & their fate in the German Nazi camp from our online lesson "Poles at KL Auschwitz”: http://lekcja.auschwitz.org/en_2020_06_polacy/

📣Official statement: the new EU chat controls proposal for mass scanning is the same old surveillance with new branding.

Whether you call it a backdoor, a front door, or “upload moderation” it undermines encryption & creates significant vulnerabilities
