  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

EU has its many flaws but they pretty much doing their job in regards of consumer rights, human rights and protection of personal data.

If Article 17 (Upload filters) didn't make it through I cannot see chat control making it (even tho I think we shouldn't even let it get so far)

The worst part about chat control is that they proposed it without having a single clue as to how this would be set up, let alone managed and controlled.

Them not being able to give clear answers to absolutley valid and fair questions just breaks more trust in their competence.

Anyway, next I'd like them to ban anything that can be considered factory new e-waste, like cheap usb fans that break after a month, or keychain speakers that don't even sound good. There's so many things in production that just don't have any business existing.

Yeah, it was the same way with upload filters... Me and the boys were protesting, experts were saying it wouldn't work yet the EU politicians kept being stubborn...

Yeah, I think they should ESPECIALLY ban these non refillable vape sticks... I mean, the batteries are practically unused yet it's more or less useless after being emptied. And there's always the refillable option. (No vapes would be best, get off that sh***)
