> A parliamentary process where a law is being proposed, amended and voted upon isn't "corruption".

If the law is initiated by the parliament and not by some company through lobby. Lobby is corruption.

Chat control 1 was rejected by the parliament and then passed anyway because parliament doesn't matter. Hardly democratic.

That's a lie - chat control was amended and then passed via parliament vote.

Please stop spreading fabrications - even when you dislike the result. That's fascist behaviour.

The majority of parliamentarians voted against it. This was considered a pass, because it didn't meet some arbitrary threshold to block it.

With 276 MEPs in favor. Vote them out in 2029 if you want to change that.

And 314 voted against.

"Chat control 1" is the deliberately misleading name for "Facebook is not banned from using CSAM scanners on your DMs if it wants to" - I don't think it's worth voting someone out based on that. The one that bans encryption is called "chat control 2". I assume they've both got the same name as part of a deception tactic.

No, 314 did not vote against. (Abstentions aren't votes against). Don't lie.

Again, vote out the ones that are in favor and replace them with ones that will vote against the proposal.
