foremanguyChat surveillance law by the EU Parliament?
GolfNovemberUniformI thought the chat control law idea kinda died already
nope, they’ll vote on it again in the few weeks. if it passes, e2ee messengers will be required to scan images on device before sending them. you will be able to not agree to that, but then you won’t be able to send or receive media and links, only text.

But why can’t you just use software from GitHub or F-Droid or something that doesn’t have to obey these laws? Is it illegal?
In fact it would be illegal but you wouldn’t take risks by using them. But the authorities could make them shut down one by one
They can’t if you use a VPN and the app is not in their jurisdiction
That would be difficult for sure but in fact it would be illegal
I don’t care if it’s illegal if the law violates people’s privacy tbh
I understand totally but it is better to stop this law as soon as possible
This person gets it. If something like this is made illegal, the best way to fight it is just to ignore them. After all, they can’t lock up everybody. Then they would have no subjects to enslave. I mean tax. I mean enslave.
Right 👍
