EU Council forces Chat Control via fast-track

Apparently in this case it's the Council of the European Union who's responsible (aka Council of Ministers. Not the European Council. And not the Council of Europe, but everyone knows that), and the Parliament is against it.

After negotiations on Chat Control 2.0 – i.e., the mandatory, suspicionless scanning of encrypted communication – stalled due to persistent resistance in the EU Parliament, the Council of Ministers is now pushing forward with a legal maneuver.
