We've got a question:

Are there any protests against the EU Chat Control plans at your place and in your communities?

Do you know about the debates or information that the EU is planning to introduce mass surveillance of private chats, indirect bans of encryption (affecting Signal, Threema and so on too), a mandatory age/identity verification system for accessing websites and for downloading apps as well as website blocking?

We're familiar with the situations in Germany and Austria, where it's mostly net activists, some civil rights organisations and a few journalists providing information/warnings about the European Union's plans. There aren't many protests or activities against it yet, however most people across the political spectrum, including anarchists and leftists, who are aware of the EU's plans are generally opposing them.

However we're curious about the situation in other EU countries and also in non-EU countries. If Chat Control, encryption bans, mandatory identity verification laws will be passed in the EU, they'll affect the internet as a whole and most likely will become a precedent for similar laws and efforts worldwide.

So is EU Chat Control a topic in your places and communities?
If yes, who is debating and are people protesting and in what ways?
