May I just ask, because I really need to know, how do they plan to stop me from mailing an encrypted attachment to someone?

#chatcontrol

@rhelune That's not the plan. But since chatcontrol is about client-side scanning before the encryption happens, the encryption would be useless. Unless you never decrypt it on your (or maybe any) device.

@datacyclist @rhelune

Does this also apply to Tuta Mail?

@Remke @rhelune It doesn't matter. The "chat control" happens at the endpoint where any message is unencrypted (otherwise you couldn't read it).

@datacyclist @Remke Wonder how they plan to backdoor gpg and stop unbackdoored forks.

But yes, my distro is very German, and I would hate to have to change it because I can't get used to other ones.

So I'm gonna gave to use a non-EU @opensuse fork.

Funny story about Suse Linux. I'm pretty old and I bought one of the first versions of Suse Linux in 2000 I guess. It was on cd's if I remember well. Lots of cd's.
I suppose I did a dual boot with Windows 98. Took me very long to set it up. My matrix printer didn't work and more issues. I got frustrated; studying social work and practically without Internet I had to figure out everything by myself.
Nowadays you just download it on your flashdrive and go 🙂

@Remke @datacyclist @opensuse I only ever used the open version, but yes, until perhaps a decade ago it always took me 24 hours to set it up (third party drivers and such).

I just want them to say here that they will not comply with chat control!

@rhelune @datacyclist @opensuse

I would like to hear that too. But I fear not complying means you will be shut down by the government that on the one hand invents #privacy rules that are sometimes quite unworkable for volunteer organisations and on the other hand want to read my apps? Damn, why don't you put a forking chip in my head attached to 5G?

@Remke @datacyclist @opensuse I am pretty sure chat control is unconstitutional in Germany. Yes, I have read the constitution. It is available in English.
