alt Hacker NewsEU now one step away from reviving private message scanning rules
Comments
For my fellow EU citizens, you can contact your representatives here: https://fightchatcontrol.eu/
The Chat Control 1.0 rule is simply that organisations like Meta are allowed to scan messages if they want to. In other words your Facebook messages are not private from Facebook. Surely we already knew and expected that.
Chat Control 2.0 is the worrying one because it mandates scanning and bans E2EE.
These two things should not have both been given the same branding.
When is it coming online? I have seen so many of these headlines that I feel it's always about to kick in, but I never get any closure.
Give it time. I’ll see you in 5 years
Each passing day we are moving closer to a dystopian state and nobody is doing anything.
I don't understand the EU's position on privacy. On the one hand, they enacted GDPR to give you control over access to your personal data.
On the other, they need access to all of your data.
Slaves also have no right to privacy. This EU variant is doomed to failure.

Tough week for euros. Cars that record your face while driving and now apps snooping on communications.
