What's going on at Meta?! 

Meta removed support for end-to-end encrypted messages in Instagram, & now it lets users create AI images with other people's public photos? 🤯

To make it worse, users must OPT OUT if they do not want this.

#ChatControl 1.0 HAS PASSED - despite a majority voting against it (314:276) 🚨

After the EU parliament has rejected it TWICE in the past, it has been pushed as an urgent procedure for a new plenary vote. The EU has simply continued to put the vote on the agenda to get the outcome they've wanted since the start.

This is not democratic‼️

📸 Roberta Metsola (EPP) who revived Chat Control 1.0 shaking hands with Mark Zuckerberg. Taken from EP_President posted May 27, 2026 on X.

🇪🇺 Chat Control Update 🇪🇺 Yesterday the EU institutions met & were in discussion, but as of now no final agreement has been met regarding the scanning on content.

We must continue to say NO TO CHAT CONTROL & NO TO SURVEILLANCE. 😡

Make your voices heard & contact your MEPs now objecting to this 👉 https://fightchatcontrol.eu/

🚨 They are bringing back #ChatControl 🚨

Metsola doesn't understand that no means no.

Discussion is scheduled for Monday, so act now: https://fightchatcontrol.eu/

#No2Surveillance #Privacy #Security

Next Monday, the EU decides on Chat Control 1.0. Will they let the Trojan Horse through the gate and let Google, Microsoft, LinkedIn etc continue to scan all your messages?

We at Tuta say NO.

❌ No scanning
❌ No mass surveillance
❌ No age verification

Instead we fight for:

✅ Encryption
✅ Privacy
✅ Open Source

And so should the EU. Call your local representatives! 🥊

Privacy is not negotiable. Speak up now. ✊ #Privacy

Google just called its new AI Search the "biggest upgrade in 25 years" but really, it's killing the open web.  😡

The open web was built by millions of people sharing knowledge freely → Now, Google who owns the monopoly on Search is ruining it. 

We wrote about what's really happening, and what you can do about it 👉 https://tuta.com/blog/why-google-ai-search-is-bad

Following the Australian precedence, Brazil, Greece, Turkey, and Malaysia have now passed laws requiring age checks for social media.

😡 But age verification and ID checks destroy everyone's #privacy. 😡

Most businesses use Outlook or Google Workspace - even doctors and lawyers. Though they should know better!

Today we're comparing Gmail, Outlook, Zoho Mail & Tuta Mail so you don't have to. 🔐✨

Today is the day: The European Commission is expected to publish the EU Tech Sovereignty Package. 🇪🇺

And the demand is clear. When purchasing software products, European authorities must prioritize

- Open source
- Buy European

The Americans buy American, the Chinese buy Chinese, when will Europe start to support its own industry?

The EU Tech Sovereignty Package can be a turning point for #digital #sovereignty.

But will they be bold enough?

#Canada #CanadaBill #Surveillance 

🚨 Canada’s Bill C-22 is here &  it’s the same surveillance bill from last year's failed C-2. 🚨

What does this mean?

❌ Your metadata would be stored by service providers for up to 12 months.

❌ The government would force these companies to build surveillance capabilities directly into their platforms.

Government calls it “lawful access” but we know that  forcing providers to enable access to encrypted data puts EVERYONE'S privacy & security at risk. 😡
