IMPORTANT UPDATE!

“The detection order will not be part of the EU presidency’s new compromise proposal. It will remain voluntary for tech giants to search for child sexual abuse material.”

Danish Minister of Justice, Peter Hummelgaard, confirms today that Denmark is backing down and dropping mandatory scanning.

Thank you all for raising your voices!

@chatcontrol Phew, glad that they backed down. Sure, it may pop up again and big corpos can scan stuff. But I'm really glad that mandatory scanning won't be enforced.

I say that, for now, let's celebrate!
