EU Parliament greenlights Chat Control 1.0

The European Parliament approved Chat Control 1.0, allowing suspicionless mass scanning of private messages through 2028. The vote was 276 in favor, 314 against, with 17 abstentions, and did not reach the 361-vote absolute majority required to block the measure. An encryption exemption was adopted, but end-to-end encrypted chats remain largely unscanned, and talks on a permanent regime (Chat Control 2.0) resume in September.
