      At least they give a platform for people to speak out and it’s public, but yes disappointing although if you see the other cross-posts some are not straight talking about the risks other than just saying it’s about mass surveillance or metadata collection which could ring less alarm bells for people reading it (i know mass surveillance should be enough but oh well)

        True, that’s actually a wonderful initiative and they should build upon it, the EU needs a public forum to discuss these things.
