#EU Commission is expected to publish the draft law on "chat control" tomorrow. Lawmakers seek AI-based checks of all message content & images directly on users' devices in order to bypass encryption protocols.
Critics say this is an attack on the digital privacy of correspondence and leads to mass surveillance.
German Chaos Computer Club protests against the planned "chat control" law in an open letter. Says it is a "fundamentally misguided technology" and an "unprecedented surveillance tool".

EU chat control law will ban open source operating systems
The proposed #Chatcontrol #EU law will not only seize totalitarian control of all private communication. It will also ban open source operating systems as an unintended consequence.
The EU is currently in the process of enacting the chat control law. It has been criticized for creating an EU-wide centralized mass surveillance and censorship system and enabling government eavesdropping on all private communication. But one little talked about consequence of the proposed law is that it makes practically all existing open source operating systems illegal, including all major Linux distributions. It would also effectively ban the F-Droid open source Android app archive.

The #EU wants to control every citizens chats
In this video I discuss the recent proposals in the EU called "Chat Control" where the EU will require all online services to scan for illegal images and messages on peoples computers, phones, and social medias.

The oppressive European Union (EU) is attempting to dictate and control their citizens by introducing "Chat Control", which requires all online services to monitor individual's communications for politically or socially unacceptable content.
The citizens of NoGoolag Empire reject this attempt at censorship, and refuse to accept the tyrannical and illegitimate power of the EU over the citizens of our holy empire!

media.ccc.de - Chat-Control | Chaos Computer Club Berlin
For more than a year now, the European Union's plans for chat-control have been underway.
In this talk we take a look at what's happening in Brussels and Berlin right now, why it's getting tight for fundamental rights and what needs to happen to stop this huge surveillance package.
The EU's plans for chat-control, which in the European Commission's draft remain limited to finding material of sexual exploitation of children and young people as well as sexual advances by adults, include among other things that communication and hosting services can be obliged to scan all content of all users. Not only will machine learning be used to find and report previously unknown images and videos, but text messages will also be analysed and searched for suspicious behaviour. Encrypted communication is not exempt, so that implementation of the plans would be a massive attack on end-to-end encryption and lead to the widespread use of client-side scanning. It is obvious that the use of these dystopian surveillance tools would not be limited to abusive depictions of children and young people in the medium term. Spain which will hold the EU-presidency for the next half year, already declared it would prefer a complete ban on E2EE.

Privacy Companies Push Back Against EU Plot To End Online Privacy
An urgent appeal has been relayed to ministers across the #EU by a consortium of tech companies, exacting a grave warning against backing a proposed regulation focusing on child sexual abuse as a pretense to jeopardize the security integrity of internet services relying on end-to-end encryption and end privacy for all citizens.
In a open letter a total of 18 organizations – predominantly comprising providers of encrypted email and messaging services – have voiced concerns about the potential experimental regulation by the European Commission (EC), singling out the “detrimental” effects on children’s #privacy and #security and the possible dire repercussions for #cybersecurity.

EU’s Plan To Mass Surveil Private Chats Has Leaked
A new version of controversial "chat control" regulation has leaked, revealing unchanged mass surveillance plans and threats to digital privacy.
The latest version of the proposed European Parliament (EP) and EU Council regulation to adopt new rules related to combating child sexual abuse has been made available online.
Despite its declared goal, the proposal, which first saw the light of day in May 2022 and is referred to by opponents as “chat control” is in fact a highly divisive draft of legislation that aims to accomplish the stated objective through mass surveillance of citizens’ private communications

Chat Control Must Be Stopped – Now! – Threema
This Wednesday, June 19, 2024, the #EU Council could be voting on the controversial #ChatControl bill. Should it pass, the consequences would be devastating: Under the pretext of child protection, EU citizens would no longer be able to communicate in a safe and private manner on the Internet. The European market’s location advantage would suffer a massive hit due to a substantial decrease in data security. And EU professionals like lawyers, journalists, and physicians could no longer uphold their duty to confidentiality online. All while children wouldn’t be better protected in the least bit. On the contrary, Chat Control could have a negative impact on minors in particular.

The EU Council and its participants have decided to withdraw the vote on the contentious Chat Control plan proposed by Belgium, the current EU President.
Take action to stop Chat Control now!
Chat control 2.0 is back on the agenda of EU governments. Ambassadors of EU governments are to express their position on the latest proposal on 9 October 2024, and EU Ministers of the Interior are to endorse Chat Control on 10 October. The latest proposal makes a minor concession but still provides for indiscriminate mass searching of private messages and destroying secure end-to-end encryption. Read more about this proposal here.

The #EU initiative Going Dark has now been launched by the EU Commission. They call it #ProtectEU.
It’s a rebranding of #ChatControl. New name. Same old propaganda.
The EU Commission’s goal is to “access encrypted data in a lawful manner, safeguarding cybersecurity and fundamental rights.”

#Canada Plans To SUE CITIZENS For “MISINFORMATION” Online While The #EU Goes For “CHAT CONTROL”!!
The Canadian government is quietly planning to sue its own citizens for posting “false and misleading” information online.
A bombshell 35-page internal memo from Industry Minister Mélanie Joly’s department reveals they’re considering legal action against individuals on Facebook, X, LinkedIn and more, all in the name of “protecting trust” in government.
Meanwhile, the EU is pushing “#ChatControl”, mass scanning of private messages, photos, and files on WhatsApp, Signal, and other encrypted apps.
In this video Dan Dicks of Press For Truth breaks down the leaked Ottawa memo and connects it to the growing global censorship machine.
This isn’t about protecting the public, it’s about control.
Mass non-compliance is the answer.
Speak freely, support independent platforms and push back now before it’s too late!

The “Chat Control 1.0” saga - European Digital Rights (EDRi)
Roberta Metsola, president of the European Parliament and a member of the European People’s Party (EPP), which is rapidly gaining infamy for undermining democratic processes.
Roberta Metsola surprised everyone by suggesting to the European Council to ignore the position of the Parliament she represents.
The EU governments swiftly agreed to push the text again, forcing the Parliament through a rarely-used procedure: a third vote, this time for a “second reading” of the file.
