Adding to that from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorn_(organization):

> Thorn works with a group of technology partners who serve the organization as members of the Technology Task Force. The goal of the program includes developing technological barriers and initiatives to ensure the safety of children online and deter sexual predators on the Internet.

> Various corporate members of the task force include Facebook, Google, Irdeto, Microsoft, Mozilla, Palantir, Salesforce Foundation, Symantec, and Twitter.

Apparently Thorn scratched that list from their current website, but the Wiki page has an archive link.



Worth noting that Thorn also makes scanning software and would stand to profit greatly from chat control.

As with all these types of legislation, always follow the money.
