RSF: Thank you @europarl for calling for a system to protect democratic informations spaces from disinformation &amp; propaganda, in line with RSF's proposal. We urge @EU_Commission to include such a system in the Defend Democracy initiative it will be presenting this autumn. 1/2 https://t.co/SfPwpzd6ay

Tom Gibson: With authoritarianism and multiple threats to media freedom, what should the EU be doing to better protect journalists? Yesterday, a European Parliament “own initiative report” by @iwiseler was passed. It has some ideas: https://www.europarl.europa.eu/doceo/document/A-9-2023-0206_EN.html

European Centre for Press and Media Freedom: 🇪🇺 The #EMFA is one of the @EU_Commission's most promising initiatives in its current legislature.
However, proposed amendments by the @EUCouncil could leave journalists in the #EU more vulnerable to spying and pose a serious threat to #PressFreedom.

According to the last draft compromise, dated 7 June 2023, of the European Media Freedom Act, there is an exception to the general ban on deploying spyware against journalists without guarantees for the protection of sources, for safeguarding national security.

In short, governments are free to put surveillance spyware on journalists' devices.
