EU Possibly Emerging As One Of The Greatest Threats To Privacy
-
As part of its efforts, the bloc has repeatedly introduced its Chat Control legislation, aimed at weakening the encryption that protects messaging services and force providers to provide a client-side backdoor for law enforcement.
The title is missing a second part: "after China, the US, Russia, the UK, etc.".
I get that privacy is potentially in danger if chatcontrol passes (ie. it's not right now) and that to raise awareness is worthwhile, but misrepresenting one of the best places privacy-wise as "one of the greatest threats" is just dishonest.

The EU is interesting because there is the GDPR that has good data privacy protection but then they keep bringing up chat control which completely undermines privacy
"They" being some proponents starting with Ylva Johansson, but it's also true that they have never had a majority to actually make chat control happen. They keep trying, but "they" are not the EU as a whole.

Non sensationalist broligarch funded shitrag version.

When does this stupid joke of a EU law end....
Never probably, these are law proposals.
They have never been voted in, as the majority of EU doesnt want them.
So makes sure to vote in politicans that wont, so we can keep it that way.

EU has the best privacy laws, only behind Switzerland.
They will not be close to the greatest threat, but it will still be a step back.
Also, these are proposals that has not been voted in ever before. So be sure to vote for politicians that wont, so we can keep it that way.

None of those countries are trying to dismantle encryption entirely so no, I disagree.

In a world where the Great Firewall and the Five Eyes exist? Sure buddy

That's OK. In this context theft is art.

Through Sweden. If they want it, they can commit Swexit.

I'm sorry, what now?
There is no place on this earth with better privacy protection laws
Yeah, it's still far from perfect but to call ot the greatest threat is just disingenuous, it's a lie. It's shouting FIRE in a movie theater because someone smokes. Stop doing this shit

Accidental self-own admitting to everyone you haven’t been paying attention to the EU’s aggressive software backdoor agenda.
If you don’t have privacy from the government, you don’t have privacy.

Privacy from whom? Privacy from corporations means nothing if you have zero privacy from a neoliberal corporate government.

No, those countries are not enshrining in law the requirement for backdoors to serve your own government, for which you’ll be required to comply.

Because they support limited privacy from corporations, but zero privacy from government. The neoliberals don’t consider that a double standard.

You always have to balance it with law enforcement. Being at the mercy of criminals, life savings stolen by scammers, etc is not freedom.

True, but most of the Europeans dont.
