🇫🇷‼️France has just blocked a large number of French-speaking Telegram channels covering the conflict in Donbass including (non-exhaustive list):
@chroniques_conflit_ukraine
@kompromatmedia
@ukr_leaks_fr
@russosphere
@geopolitiqueprofonde
@tass_fr
@actualiteFR
Blocking is based on the telephone number used to register on Telegram. As soon as I know how these channels intend to circumvent censorship (like Rybar, RT or Sputnik have done, I will keep you informed).
In the meantime, you can buy a virtual phone number online in another country for just a few euros per month. There are smartphone apps that do this.

EU’s Plan To Mass Surveil Private Chats Has Leaked
A new version of controversial "chat control" regulation has leaked, revealing unchanged mass surveillance plans and threats to digital privacy.
The latest version of the proposed European Parliament (EP) and EU Council regulation to adopt new rules related to combating child sexual abuse has been made available online.
Despite its declared goal, the proposal, which first saw the light of day in May 2022 and is referred to by opponents as “chat control” is in fact a highly divisive draft of legislation that aims to accomplish the stated objective through mass surveillance of citizens’ private communications

EU probes Telegram, because size matters for regulators • The Register
"The European Union is reportedly looking into messaging app Telegram, and whether it has more users than the platform lets on.
EU officials are currently in discussions with Telegram concerning its user base according to Bloomberg, which cited unnamed sources. While Telegram officially claims it has just 41 million European users, local regulators are skeptical and suspect the actual user amount is higher. This is particularly relevant since platforms with 45 million or more users (termed very large online platforms or VLOPs) operating in the EU are subject to stricter rules of the EU Digital Services Act (DSA)."
Should Telegram be found to have more than 45 million EU users, it would qualify as a VLOP and potentially be responsible for the content hosted on the service.
Running afoul of the DSA could result in big fines up to 6 percent of revenue, or even banishment from the EU, if Telegram refuses to cooperate.

Several people injured in a mass-#stabbing at a rally in #Germany organised by #PaxEuropa, which is an organisation opposed to the "Islamisation of Europe".
Activist and blogger Michael #Stürzenberger was among the injured.
A German cop also got stabbed in the neck after he attacked one of the rally members, (one of those who was trying to subdue mad stabber), and then the stupid cop knelt on his chest like he was the problem - a microcosm of #EU decision-making.
Looked like the cop just saw white German guy grappling with a muslim guy and immediately presumed that the white guy was the problem.
Sometimes you deserve what you get 🤷♂
The last video looks the astoundingly stupid German police officers placing the white German guy under arrest 🤷♂

#EU Commission is confidentially planning an unprecedented expansion of #surveillance measures of digital devices, extending even to household appliances, including smart refrigerators.
“The draft is titled: "Recommendations from the High-Level Group on Access to Data for Effective Law Enforcement." In German: Recommendations of the expert group on how access to digital data can be regulated in order to ensure effective prosecution.”
Why would you need to be prosecuted for something you have in your fridge?

EU Plans Major Expansion of Mass Surveillance: Indiscriminate Data Collection, Device Monitoring, Encryption Backdoors, and Mandatory Data Sharing
The European Union (EU) is planning to implement a new set of draconian mass surveillance rules shortly after Sunday’s EU Parliament election, a member of the EP has warned after the plans surfaced on the internet.
The conclusion that radical surveillance measures are in the works proceeds from documents detailing the meetings of working groups, dubbed “high level group(s) on access to data for effective law enforcement.”
The documents originate from the EU Commission, and contain a number of recommendations, including reintroducing indiscriminate retention of communications data in the bloc, creation of encryption backdoors, as well as forcing hardware manufacturers to give access to anything from phones to cars to law enforcement through what is known as “access by design.

Chat Control Must Be Stopped – Now! – Threema
This Wednesday, June 19, 2024, the #EU Council could be voting on the controversial #ChatControl bill. Should it pass, the consequences would be devastating: Under the pretext of child protection, EU citizens would no longer be able to communicate in a safe and private manner on the Internet. The European market’s location advantage would suffer a massive hit due to a substantial decrease in data security. And EU professionals like lawyers, journalists, and physicians could no longer uphold their duty to confidentiality online. All while children wouldn’t be better protected in the least bit. On the contrary, Chat Control could have a negative impact on minors in particular.

Chat Control Must Be Stopped – Now!
With its legislative proposal known as “Chat Control,” the EU Commission is trying to establish an unprecedented mass-surveillance apparatus of Orwellian proportions in the European Union. If EU citizens don’t stand up for privacy now, it may be too late.
#EU Council has withdrawn the vote on #ChatControl
Lack of majority thanks to severe pushback puts the proposal on hold.
Signal and other apps threaten to leave the EU if the proposal is enacted as law
