> It is shocking that 276 members of parliament would vote to support this. Are so many so naive? Or being paid off?
There are a lot of countries in the EU that aren't shining beacons of democracy.
The EU makes sense as an economic block but some of the countries in it are politically unaligned with what people think of when they think of the EU.
You really should check out the list of voters, you will be surprised who exactly voted "yes". The list can be found here: https://www.thatprivacyguy.com/blog/chat-control-the-415-who...
The “for” votes are for the reject motion in this case.
That is not the full list, plenty of votes are missing.

https://fightchatcontrol.eu/ has a better way to sort by country and political party so you can see who woted for what. It is painful to see politicians I voted for supporting this, even after I have sent them a few emails. Honestly, based on the results from my country, in the upcomming euro-elections, I am seriously considering voting alt-right.
You will be surprised to discover that the most open pro-democracy and “leftist” are also the most fascist and speech controlling ones.
At least in Spain this is exactly the case, and is really scary how much people falls for it.
Yea, like France or Germany or Belgium
You know Im right
