⚡️🇪🇺 NEW - European Parliament President Roberta Metsola is trying to push through "chat control" despite her own Parliament voting it down.
Parliament killed it 311 to 228 in March.
In a document seen by Politico, Metsola has invited EU member states in the Council to adopt a first-reading position on the lapsed regulation that lets platforms voluntarily scan for child sexual abuse material (CSAM).
Cyprus, which currently chairs the Council, has put the request to member-state ambassadors for Friday, while admitting in its own note there is no precedent for what is being asked.
Privacy campaigners say the scanning opens the door to mass surveillance and the end of encryption. Reviving a rejected bill through the Council also tests how far one EU institution can route around another's vote.
Rimmer introduces direct democracy by holding endless referendums on trivial or complex matters via postal voting and televoting, which generates so much voter apathy that the populace protests against the reform. Having introduced direct democracy in a bid to gain ultimate power, Rimmer holds a last vote to 'streamline government', which would give him dictatorial powers; with the populace exhausted, the proposal passes.
