Germany decided not to turn its back on privacy, at the last minute. We're very happy for that.

But we're not out of the woods yet, and awareness raising like this is essential.

We're so relieved to see Germany reaffirm its opposition to the dangerous Chat Control proposal--the one that would mandate mass scanning of communications. Germany's long been a solid champion of privacy, and the news that it was considering backing mass surveillance was alarming. 1/

Minimum resistance: Challenge every new 'initiative' if you think it comes with more costs than benefits.

Moderate: Petition for change. You can do this within your University (Microsoft Forms) with other like-minded people.

Bold: Lobby funders. Why should they waste money? More on this soon.
