EU Survey about mass surveilance until 20th September
EU is trying to pass a mass surveilance and data storage system (again) Please take part and tell them how bad of an idea it is. The questions are written in a very suggestive way..
edit: please share

Apparently you're not allowed to have too many concerns. Nice slip of the mask EU.
you could use 'other' and write 'all of the above' in the field
Fair. I did use the final feedback comment you could give for an overall statement.
yeah i hated that too, it felt good to let them hear it in the text input field
There's a german guide how to answer it. You just need to translate it somewhere:

Here is the version in English.

Thanks for linking!
Done. Cheers.
Many of the early questions are heavily loaded. It's a badly designed questionnaire but the relevant parts to express your objection are a little further on so for anyone reading, keep on keeping on.
It's actually really well designed. For what they try to achieve
Done, but what kind manipulative piece of shit wrote these questions. The question where you get to sort which of your rights you think is least important is especially egregious. Its like a torturer asking you which of your limbs you like the least before cutting them off.
How do you answer this thing, it's confusing to say the least.
It's confusing indeed, and the questions are phrased in such a way as to lead you on. Regardless, it's a tool to make our voices heard loud and clear. There's a feedback section in the end where one can voice their discontent in how badly the questionnaire is put together.
The comments are very encouraging IMO, but what can I do to help? Do I have to connect with my gov account or something? Should I also comment?
BTW fantastic initiative to counter this crap
What the hell, this is outrageous
It's like they ask questions not if, but as it will be done, how would you like it served
5? They are ALL concerning (there are more of them too)
And this isn't made to give a certain outcome, right?
But hey, explain to us what kind of measures we should implement instead, but with only 255 characters. What a fucking joke
What the fuck
it's a little rough, i providrd email adress and logged in with a pw and then it was basically a regular survey but with really biased questions
this is like scraping mold off walls in mouldy house. This will just keep going if nothing is done to root causes.
Where can I submit feedback? For me it says "feedback closed" since June 18th.
Scroll down a bit. "Public consultation".
