🎉 Good news for UK citizens - NO VPN BAN 🎉
Today, the minister for AI and Online Safety, Kanishka Narayan, announced that for now the government would not take any action to restrict VPN's in the UK.
But because it may be off the agenda for now, it does not mean it will be forever. Therefore, we at Tuta will continue our fight for privacy 💪❤️

What's going on at Meta?!
Meta removed support for end-to-end encrypted messages in Instagram, & now it lets users create AI images with other people's public photos? 🤯
To make it worse, users must OPT OUT if they do not want this.

At Tuta, if Chat Control 2.0 is passed we have two options: to move out of the EU or sue and fight it. As our CEO, Matthias Pfau has stated, we would sue and fight for people's privacy. Because for us, undermining end-to-end encryption is not an option.
We will continue to say no to #ChatControl and fight for everyone's right to privacy. ✊🏻❤️🔒

Yesterday was a sad day for the privacy of citizens in the EU given the extension of #ChatControl 1.0, allowing for voluntary scanning of private communications.
In light of yesterday's vote, we wanted to remind you that: Chat Control 1.0 is different from Chat Control 2.0 in that providers (like us at Tuta) are not forced to backdoor their end-to-end encryption for surveillance.

#ChatControl 1.0 HAS PASSED - despite a majority voting against it (314:276) 🚨
After the EU parliament has rejected it TWICE in the past, it has been pushed as an urgent procedure for a new plenary vote. The EU has simply continued to put the vote on the agenda to get the outcome they've wanted since the start.
This is not democratic‼️

CHAT CONTROL IS BACK → Today the urgent procedure for Chat Control 1.0 was passed.
NEXT UP: The EU Parliament is voting on Thursday.
If Chat Control passes: your messages, pictures, videos will all be scanned because the law will require it - this removes privacy and welcomes mass surveillance in the EU.
Share this post, make some noise, and let's fight for our right to privacy. ✊🏻♥️🇪🇺

Don’t call it age verification. Call it centralised personal data collection. And understand that it serves surveillance, not safety for children.

Also Meta: We want to be clear: this is not facial recognition.

Thank-you to Steve Rose for mentioning Tuta. It’s great to see privacy-first solutions getting recognition. 🙏

Today is the day, the EU decides on Chat Control 1.0. Will they let the Trojan Horse through the gate and let Google, Microsoft, LinkedIn etc continue to scan all your messages?
We at Tuta say NO.
❌ No scanning
❌ No mass surveillance
❌ No age verification
Instead we fight for:
✅ Encryption
✅ Privacy
✅ Open Source
And so should the EU. Stop #ChatControl now! 🥊

So to "enjoy" all feature in Google, you must give consent to AI tracking. That's privacy blackmail and should be illegal.
