tl;dr: Chat Control 1.0, the EU's voluntary message-scanning derogation, expired in April 2026 after Parliament rejected its extension, but the Council is now attempting an unprecedented revival by pushing an identical "new" law through an expedited procedure — with a binding Parliament vote on July 9 requiring 361 MEPs to block it. Meanwhile, Chat Control 2.0, the permanent CSA Regulation proposed in 2022, remains deadlocked after five failed trilogues, with encryption and suspicionless scanning still the sticking points. The Council's own legal service has warned that even "voluntary" generalised scanning likely violates Article 7 of the EU Charter.
