🇩🇪 Today we celebrate #GermanUnityDay – a victory over oppression & mass surveillance.
But history warns us: #ChatControl could bring surveillance back at a scale East Germany could only have dreamed of.
Let’s defend freedom & say NO to #ChatControl! ✊

@Tutanota
Our wall is not meant to separate people, but to protect our privacy from those who want to monitor, influence and control us.
@Tutanota Except where monitoring #AI chats, making sure they're not monitoring democratic distributors of root infrastructure, in order to assist #TechBros in cornering energy markets, and reproducing AI extortions.
Ya know, #resist #AbuseOfPower and all that jazz.
@Tutanota On a day like this it's perhaps more important to say that Germany should stop it's border controls which are against Schengen in their length.
@Tutanota
My partner and I remember the day the Berlin wall came down.
We cried with happiness.
Never forgotten.
One of our best memories.
a victory over oppression & mass surveillance.
annexing another country and then handing all of the people run companies over to capitalists, exploiting the workers for their saving by having them trade their currency 4 to 1 to be able to buy food in their supermarkets and then never trying to fully integrate the population or trying to rebuild the broken infrastructure isn't a victory over oppression it is oppression.
@ErikUden @costeer You are absolutely right, there are more aspects to this topic and the blog post is not balanced enough. What we wanted to achieve is get the message across that surveillance still needs to be fought, even more now with Chat Control looming. But you are also right that surveillance also happened in the West, the consequences were just more visible in the East of Germany.
@Tutanota People need to wake up and just claim it is spyware, and send it to spyware remover companies and say this "put up or shut up" and have them start removing things. and we the people will see how long before the law changes back in favor of we the people.
