My feedback to the EU regarding the newly proposed law forcing all websites to plaintext store everything users do or write for law enforcement.

This may be the dumbest law the EU has proposed as of yet, and it already attempted chat control and article 13 / 11, so this says a lot!

Not only have providers complained for decades about the cost of storing so much user data, of which 99.99999% won't ever be used, but also does law enforcement rarely need this kind of data, and by the time they've legally gained access to it, it won't be stored anymore.

It's a horrid invasion of our privacy, but the perfect tool for fascist regimes, for whom we are paving the way with this!

If you only invite corporate spyware lobbyist orgs to draft a law, this is the result. Peter Thiel couldn't have written a better proposal.

Stop this law if you wish for any citizen of this continent to respect you as an institution!
