    There might be. This website makes the process of emailing your representatives very easy.

    I heavily changed the text they proposed in the hopes that it would be read. Just sent it now. If you’re in the EU it’s worth sending the email IMO.

    The constitution in Ireland guarantees privacy in the home so I added that into the mix.

      5 july foundation wrote a blogpost about why we should send postcards instead:

      Here is your chance to put pressure on MEPs to stick to their no to Chat Control 2 in a simple way.

      As we have previously reported, there are signs that the European Parliament’s unanimous no to Chat Control 2 may be loosening - now that the EU elections are behind us.

      So they may need some external pressure. This often happens with various email campaigns - which can easily be dismissed as spam and mass mailings.

      However, something that usually bites is physical mail. Thousands of emails are the order of the day when things get heated in the European Parliament. But 25 physical letters are considered a public outcry.

      So proud that my country is already opposing! Don’t have to do anything now (except for spreading the word, naturally).

      It’s the government’s job, we pay them for it, why should I be wasting my time for free to do their job, after all? Just fire your governments and hire someone better suited for the task!

      I tried do it today and email got rejected by the recipient.

      Maybe many of them have already put a filter list to thrown the email directly to spam or not even be accepted by the mta.

        Yeah I got the same but only for a subset. Nearly all of them went through so maybe that happened for you too?
