EFF: Online leeftijdsverificatie betekent einde van anonimiteit op internet. Daarnaast bestaat het risico dat persoonsgegevens op straat belanden Leeftijdsverificatiesystemen zijn in de kern surveillancesystemen.
Voor mensen die voor hun veiligheid afhankelijk zijn van #anonimiteit is dit een groot probleem. Het gaat dan bijvoorbeeld om journalisten, activisten en klokkenluiders die anonimiteit gebruiken voor contact met bronnen.
"For 29.3% of users, “about” texts revealed sensitive details such as political views, religious affiliations, or links to other social media profiles.
Alarmingly, the study uncovered 2.9 million cases of public key reuse, including identity and prekeys, which could undermine end-to-end encryption if exploited by malicious actors using unofficial clients"
Incredible how lackluster Whatsapp's security is.

Dat hebben we tegengehouden, maar nog steeds moeten massasurveillance en verplichte identificatie uit het voorstel: https://www.patrick-breyer.de/en/eu-chat-control-proposal-still-poses-high-risks-despite-removal-of-mandatory-scanning-experts-warn/
Thanks to WINE, Proton, and Valve's hardware, a significant milestone has been achieved with 90% of Windows games running on Linux, making nine out of ten Windows games accessible on a new Linux installation. Users are flocking to other platforms during the transition from the Windows 10 to 11 eras. Thank you Microsoft once again for enabling the age of Linux gaming, you are our biggest marketing partner 😉

If you are wondering why Chat Control
is being brought back so relentlessly,
despite a clear and strong opposition from citizens, human rights advocates, and child protection organizations alike,
I recommend you read this enlightening article from 2023 (alas still relevant):
Spoiler: It's lobbyists who want lots of your tax money, and don't care about the children.

An investigation uncovers a web of influence in the powerful coalition aligned behind the European Commission’s proposal to scan for child sexual abuse material online, a proposal leading experts say puts rights at risk and will introduce new vulnerabilities by undermining encryption.
EU sorteert in achterkamertje alsnog voor op draconische ChatControl surveillance.
Dit betekent effectief:
- verplicht alle communicatie scannen
- leeftijdscontroles online.
Laat het Europees Parlement weten wat je hiervan vindt, zodat ze hier een stokje voor steken: https://fightchatcontrol.eu/

We're disappointed that the new EU compromise proposal will implement a loophole that essentially brings back mandatory client-side scanning. #ChatControl is back. We strongly urge the EU to remove this loophole in Article 4 of the new draft.
