As part of its efforts, the bloc has repeatedly introduced its Chat Control legislation, aimed at weakening the encryption that protects messaging services and force providers to provide a client-side backdoor for law enforcement.

Just don't.

Not sure who you're shilling for but just fuck right off with that nonsense

Europe currently is the best place for privacy. It's far from perfect, but it's a safe haven in comparison to any other place on this earth and you're pretending it's the next China. Go away with your disingenuous lying posts

When did they sneak this past I though it was thrown out like 20 times

[–] Pirata@lemm.ee 34 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It didn't pass. Its just, they keep trying to push for it, but thankfully some countries are still shutting it down.

Politicians, parties and even countries should be penalized for repeatedly bringing it up just to be shut down. It‘s a waste of time and waste of money. Things like that shouldn‘t be voted on for at least another 4 years once shut down. And no, just changing the wording doesn‘t make a proposal unique. A big brother law is still a big brother law.

Also politicians should just permanently be ineligible as office holders if they bring up crypto war topics again. Like adding backdoors to cryptography "just for the good guys". People that stubbornly refusing to acknowledge the laws of nature just don't deserve the right to be voted into office.

I agree with you thoroughly.

Oligarch regimes doing dey thing

[–] Squizzy@lemmy.world 1 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

Looool oligarch show me a bloc as large as the EU with less oligarchical activity. Hell any comparable state/s at all.

We are less oliagrch than US and Russia🤡

Sure that's a W of sorts but we are talking about the power structure and EU member states just like the rest of them got ruling oligarch clans who make up the regime

Just because y'all don't like the idea, does not change how the system works.
