EU chat control is also better than American government spying on American tech companies (which is effectively a kind of EU Chat Control, except its USA who gets to spy). Both are bad, but one is less bad.
- wolvoleo 8mo agoTrue, at least the EU does it above board. No secret court backroom shenanigans. I'm still super opposed to chatcontrol but at least it's in the open for us to fight.
- guerrilla 8mo agoYeah, I agree with you both. Lesser evils do exist. At least there's some pretense of democracy and not just spy on everyone without limit without telling anyone. If it wasn't for Snowden, it'd still just be us "conspiracy theorists". (Anyone remember the 90s?)
- tick_tock_tick 8mo agoFor the average citizen absolutely not there is no free speech in the EU any form of EU chat control will result in constant arrests for what should be perfectly legal speech.
