Thankfully outdated but keeps coming back to the parliament/commission every now and then. Someone should just kill it already, I mean it's pretty obvious it's in direct contradiction with Article 7 of the Fundamental Rights Charter of the EU
The article is old, yes, the first one from a search engine. If you have a source for saying it's not in the works anymore, I'd be glad to see it. Not saying you're wrong.
Just this month there was a statement from FiCom (finnish organization advancing IT businesses' interests) urging our government to not accept the bill, so to me it seems it's just under development.
