This is framing. I live in the Netherlands, who voted against this version of ChatControl light. Messenger apps are now allowed not nog forced to scan messages and report incidents (mostly aimed at child pornography i understand).

Sounds good maybe, but here it is feared that scanning PRIVATE messages is normalised in this way, and will be made compulsary in the future.

So all things considered a bad fucking day for privacy. If anything the EU moves back to ChatControl after the initial version was rejected (rightly so in my opionion.)
