Headline is clickbait nonsense. Nothing is being greenlighted.
Here's the only relevant section, which links to an article [1] that says only that discussion will continue on the 19th June:
According to documents leaked by netzpolitik.org, the COREPER 2 meeting in which they will put it [compromise proposal] to a vote will already take place on Wednesday, 19 June.

- mariusor 2y agoAlso, I expect "green light" in this context means that it will make it on the EU Parliament's agenda, nothing more. That's still perilously close, but it's not done and dusted yet.
- xinayder 2y agoI'm pretty sure the "greenlight" on the title means they are meeting to confirm that the countries will vote in favor of the law so it can be quickly approved once it makes to the parliament: > If Chat Control is endorsed by Council now, experience shows there is a great risk it will be adopted at the end of the political process. meaning: there will be little opposition to the proposal once it reaches the MEPs.
- mariusor 2y ago> meaning: there will be little opposition to the proposal once it reaches the MEPs. meaning: because the dust hasn't settled on the EU parliamentary elections, MEPs could vote without giving full attention to the law. Call me an optimist, but I still hold hope that that's not the case.
