EU is a regulation superpower.
And in most cases it's really good, thought out, constantly moving with the market & reports/reviews on it's efficiency.
It gets fucky when personal interests (like "politicians keeping down crime & protecting the kids", or lobbyists doing the same) get mixed in tho.
This is such political popularity case. -

I'm fully onboard, we have to fight this for everyone's sake.
Not completely related, but is this 100-mil-in-profits the best option to gather signatures?
Via wiki/Change.org:Change.org is a website which allows users to create and sign petitions in an attempt to advance various social causes by raising awareness and influencing decision-makers. The site is a US-based for-profit company and claims to have 557 million users as of August 2025.
Isn't there a EU site to petition?

Here's a tool to quickly email you're representatives about chatcontrol. It's really easy to use and is generally great!

The biggest lobby pushing this is companies like Thorn, who promise to provide (I.e. sell) the technology required to comply with such a law. It's literally just a business investment for them.
Yeah, and, unsurprisingly, the actual experts on child abuse and privacy are mostly against this.
