Well done, Joachim! 🙌

The campaign has irked some recipients. “In terms of dialog within a democracy, this is not a dialog,” said Lena Düpont, a German member of the European People’s Party group and its home affairs spokesperson, of the mass emails.

Funny comment, seeing how EU was not even planning a referendum to check whether the majority of EU citizens approve such a proposal or not. EU did not even think of a dialogue with the citizens.

And funny how the article presents the proposal as something against sexual child-abuse material. As if abusers really used normal chat apps to make such exchanges...
