• We should go to war against corpocracy, until all corporations are bankrupt.

    EVERY. DAMN. ONE.

  • they will keep trying in the most sneaky ways until they are deposed. they only need to succeed once.

  • Where can I see who voted for and against? I want to know if I need to change who I vote for next EU election.

    • this is the real thing, this is almost certainly unconstitutional.

      greedy corps going against law as usual.

      • No, not really. It’s because they retracted the proposal before going to vote, because they knew it wouldnt pass after Germany publicly said they would vote against.

        Then they changed some stuff and send it again, which is now rejected as it seems.

        Now they need to wait, but they didnt before.

            The Commission probably since they’re the only entity who can propose law

            • How do I respond to this^^

              Yes, I think we’re all assuming the law came into parliament the regular way. I assumed the “they” are supposed lobbyists who are standing behind and outside the regular entity…

              Am I missing something or are you pulling a Nielsen on me? “Coffee?” “Yes, I know.”

      it’s indicative of the system we’re in. our oligarchs have enough money to pay people to push for this in perpetuity while the rest of us are forced to give up some degree of our lives to fight it off on a field of battles that’s tilted towards money; they will win eventually unless the system itself is changed.

  • Let’s celebrate this victory… even though it’s concerning that it is a recurring topic :-/

    • This is indeed the plan. Only 1 time is enough to this through the system. But it requires 500 times saying no first.

            Well based on the seats in the parliament, most eu voters are rightwing to some degree. So it’s Tatcher going undercover IRA to bomb herself?

  • They’ll just change a few things and try again. I feel like we’ve been hearing about chat control on and off for about 5 years now and I can’t imagine it’ll go away soon.

  • Good, but pretty meaningless overall while they still allow lobbying to take place.

    They pretend to care that lobbying means corruption from corporate interests, but doing anything meaningful to stop lobbying entirely and punish anyone still doing it would be “authoritarian communism” now, wouldn’t it?

  • Saw this then scrolled more to see the EU going after porn sites for age verification. 😞
