Today, the European Parliament is expected to adopt its position on the updated Artificial Intelligence Act, the AI Omnibus, in the mini plenary session in Brussels. After a Greens/EFA initiative during the negotiations, the text includes a ban on using and introducing apps for “nudifier” purposes, which allow the creation of nude and sexual audiovisual material of a person based on only a photograph.

Today, the European Parliament has just voted to extend the temporary derogation from the ePrivacy Directive, also called ‘ChatControl 1’. A crucial amendment tabled by the Greens/EFA Group was able to implement more privacy-friendly, targeted solutions to protect children online instead of indiscriminatory and ineffective mass scanning of citizens' private communication.
