> For autumn 2021, European Commission announced that it will propose a follow-up legislation that will make the use of chatcontrol mandatory for all e-mail and messenger providers. This legislation might then also affect securely end-to-end encrypted communications.
So far nobody is reporting on this.
- alkonaut 5y agoSo he is outraged by this and the worst thing is… not in this legislation but in a potential follow up legislation that might contain those bad parts?
- bruce343434 5y agoAt this point I'm assuming you are arguing in bad faith. Again, no one is reporting on this. People should be made aware that if the vote happens, they can nag their reps beforehand. But they aren't being made aware.
- alkonaut 5y agoYou must be misunderstanding what I’m arguing. I’m saying nothing about the actual law passed or how it wasn’t reported on. What I’m saying is that the article linked talks about banning encryption or mandating back doors, and that law would be very controversial (much more than this one) so that law couldn’t just be passed unnoticed. The future law text about banning encryption might be written some day and I too hope we have plenty of time to nag reps before it ever gets to a vote. This could be years from now, if ever.
- asdfzxh8 5y agonah, you are bsing, the article is about legit concerns, you failing to see any of that or naively/foolishly believing the innocence of the legislators is your own problem.
