The #CSAM clusterfuck just became even more shitty:

Dutch researcher Danny Mekić has looked at #advertising data from #Twitter & says that the @EU_Commission's #DGHome has used #SurveillanceAds based on prohibited data categories to target people with #disinformation about the #ChatControl proposal.

#YlvaJohansson's department specifically targeted people in member states that had been critical of her proposal but excluded people who are likely to value #privacy.

@ilumium How fitting: the @EU_Commission uses SurveilanceAds to promote its planned surveillance tool. This makes it even clearer what the real purpose of ChatControl is – and that the official arguments are nothing but "wrapping it to make it look nice". Despicable.

Ylva should have her chats controlled – and then step down. I don't see how else the commission can be salvaged; this shows the commission as it is now cannot be trusted.
