Summary
The EU Parliament and Council remain deadlocked over the proposed "chat control" regulation aimed at protecting children from sexual abuse online. After six months of negotiations under the Cypriot Council presidency, Parliament's negotiators report compromises in many areas, but core disagreements persist over digital privacy and mass surveillance of encrypted messengers. The Council and European People's Party (EPP) are reportedly attempting procedural tactics to bypass MEPs' resistance, leading to a power struggle over digital privacy rights in the EU.
