🇪🇺 🚨Final negotiations on Chat Control 2.0 just started between the European Commission, the European Parliament, and the Council of the EU.

What is good:

✅ Encryption will not be broken

What is bad:

❌ Commission & Council want #IDchecks

Lots of journalists, whistleblowers, activists and dissidents choose Tuta to protect their identity. We hope the European Parliament will stick to their decision to oppose mass #surveillance and #censorship.

Huge Victory: Chat Control no longer forces us to break encryption! But: It now wants age verification. | Tuta

The EU Regulation to Prevent and Combat Child Sexual Abuse, first published in May 2022, has become the "most criticized law of all time". Here's how to stop it now!

@Tutanota I dont get the id checks they just push kids to shadier less moderated websites and forces adults to dox themselves online? Really odd choices by @EUCommission

@joonq @Tutanota @EUCommission I think it's clear its not about protecting kids. If it were, we'd be having a conversation about how it's a responsilibity of parents to... parent. This seems a blatant attack on online anonymity. It's sickening - I can't see one benefit and just security danger and data harvesting all wrapped up in one shitty package :(

@thereverend4253 @Tutanota @EUCommission Yep not to even talk about how this could easily lay the groundwork for a possible future authoritarian state to abuse. And also this creates criminals a market on selling fake ids. Like there are so many bad sides to this that i can imagine.

@joonq @Tutanota @EUCommission I'm so glad they're concentrating on the most pressing matter of them all though! /s. Of course when the inevitable data breach (lol, its going straight to Palantir or whichever other tech bro company), they'll shrug and say 'think of the children'. Which will be tone deaf and ironic in post Epstein files era. But surely they will be under same rules? Nope. Mission f-ing Accomplished, I guess.

@thereverend4253 @joonq @EUCommission It is an attack on our anonymity and the open, free web.

@Tutanota @joonq @EUCommission Damn right it is and the masses at large are not tech savvy at all so all they need to hear is "protecting kids". Narrator: it will do feck all to protect kids.

@Tutanota beside state surveillance, have you seen the quantity of data leaks that includes passports, photos, and ID data? We can't trust private companies with that kind of information !

@Tutanota let’s be clear if they do enforce it you will be obligated to comply no matter what correct ?

@Tutanota Some time ago I had problems with the captcha in your app during registration, I was temporarily IP banned, I also tried with another connection and it gives the same problem, today I tried again but it still says I'm IP banned and it's been 1 week since the last time
