I simply can't believe she's as ignorant as she comes across; even if she doesn't know that you can't "scan" an encrypted file, she's a damned EU Commissioner; she has a large staff of educated people to advise her.
I think she simply doesn't care about the reality, she wants to bang a "protect the children" drum for political reasons.
It's odd; she seems to be a pedagogy graduate, who was once (1988) elected to the Swedish parliament as a communist, then worked as a teacher, and was later (1994?) appointed a social-democrat minister. So since her first parliamentary term, she has not been an elected representative, but an appointed functionary. So I guess her "political reasons" amount to pleasing her boss.

Former commies who repent don't lose their contempt for ordinary people. They continue to think they are "the vanguard". I reckon she just thinks ordinary people are too dim to notice that her sayings are nonsense.
- Jolter 4y agoI’m not sure what you mean by her not being an elected representative. She was a Swedish member of parliament for a long time, not just one term. The tradition in Sweden is that ministers are taken from among the ranks of the ruling party’s MPs, even though exceptions sometimes are made.
