"We are in favour of this law, so long as it is not used for its intended purpose."

  You should elaborate. And explain what you understood as "its intended purpose". My understanding of the vote last Friday was about protracting the 2021 temporary compromise (scan voluntarily until we have a full law), which was suspended at the beginning of April. It is not clear how they proceeded that way. It seems some vertices imposed that they would not accept a legal vacuum there. So, it's not a "law". What ran for the past five years was an "exception to privacy laws" (I am not informed of the mandated guardrails).

    I regret to inform you that a temporary exception to a law is also a law. edit: > It seems some vertices imposed that they would not accept a legal vacuum there. I find this sentence unintelligible. Can you come up with another wording? And who are these "vertices" who have been given approval rights over EU legislation?

      > to inform you that What would that entail. > who are these "vertices" Apparently metsola, to some source. The eu parliament refused to renew the temporary licence to private message monitoring, which had the "speaker" complain that this would just leave the union with a normative vacuum - apparently insisting that one non-temporary regulation has to be decided. So I read.
