"The technologies used to achieve the goals of the Regulation need to be the least privacy-invasive, state-of-the-art and can only be used for the strict purpose of detecting and reporting CSAM, not for any other purposes" I'm from the UK and, given what we know has been happening for a decade or so (mass snooping, collection, analysis), this actually does give me some pause for thought. In theory, this closes a loophole the Tories/UK state have been pushing at as a justification for ever deeper intrusion for years now. Obviously it won't apply here anymore since we left the EU, but this bill by itself doesn't fill me with utter dread.
