A map of Europe titled "Help Stop #ChatControl!" shows countries color-coded by their government's stance on Chat Control in 2025. The legend indicates: green for "Not in favour," blue for "Undecided/Unclear," and red for "In favour."

Countries in favour (red) are: Bulgaria, Croatia, Cyprus, Denmark, France, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Malta, Portugal, Slovakia, and Spain.

Countries not in favour (green) are: Austria, Belgium, Czech Republic, Finland, Netherlands and Poland.

Countries undecided or unclear (blue) are: Estonia, Germany, Greece, Slovenia, Luxembourg, Romania, and Sweden (in favour, but subject to approval by Parliament).

The map includes the text "Is your government opposing it yet?" and a call to action at the bottom: "Act now! www.chatcontrol.eu".
