EU Commission tried to influence political views in the Netherlands. In the contentious fight over the heavily criticized chat control regulation (a proposed EU law that could undermine all encrypted online communication to allow authorities to read online chats), the European Commission has identified the Netherlands as a Member State that they wanted to influence politically. In an attempt to “flip” the views in the Netherlands, the Commission went to X/Twitter and made postings indirectly promoting this Regulation.

      The factual answer when looking at past reports about money flow and the people involved is:

      • Law enforcement and Spy agencies
      • Dictators (Orban etc)
      • AI companies that want to sell the filtering software that would be used to sift through our data

        Dictators (Orban etc)

        Orbán is already spying on everyone, laws don’t matter to him.
