Not to worry: while the EU may have backed down on the “Chat Control” legislation (again. For now), it’s not the only mass surveillance law in the pipeline that’s being prepared behind closed doors! The “security by design” proposal – which does the opposite of what the name implies – would get us mass scale surveillance and storing of all our electronic communication and not just images, and would require all encryption used in the EU (by us plebs, that is) to be interceptable.
Like somebody said in an earlier article about Chat Control, we need to fight these fascist proposals infinitely many times, but they only have to succeed once.
