The EU initiative Going Dark has now been launched by the EU Commission. They call it ProtectEU.
It’s a rebranding of Chat Control. New name. Same old propaganda.
The EU Commission’s goal is to “access encrypted data in a lawful manner, safeguarding cybersecurity and fundamental rights.”

in reply to Mullvad VPN • • •how many times will they keep pushing this crap before people have enough and tell them to stop? We know full well that you can’t have secure encryption that only allows ‘lawful’ access, and that any attempts to weaken existing systems will just make things worse.
Sorry, at least you guys understand what’s up and fight for privacy and online rights.

Can't wait for #Orban, and consequently #Putin, to get hold of this:
»This will enable secure #automated exchanges of #fingerprints, #DNA profiles, #vehicle registration data, #facial images, and police #records through EU routers. At national level, Member States need to implement the Information Exchange Directive enhancing information exchange channels for seamless cross-border information flow, while ensuring their integration with Union-level systems, such as SIENA«

in reply to Mullvad VPN • • •> The terrorist threat level in Europe continues to loom. … They target their radicalisation and recruitment efforts specifically towards the most vulnerable sections of our societies and in particular certain young people.
So how about we care about most vulnerable sections of our societies for a change?!
Fucking hypocrites.

The answer to people acting like our GOP is *not* to start acting like our Democrats.
@EUCommission Seems important you understand this point. Neoliberal fascist-adjacent policy just gives the fascists better tools to kill you with later.

"present a Technology Roadmap on encryption to identify and assess technological solutions to enable lawful access to data by law enforcement authorities in 2026"
In other words no more end to end encryption.

You can’t have both.
Pick one.
Choose carefully.

in reply to Mullvad VPN • • •end to end encryption is end to end encryption.
There's no lawful way to access this without legalizing either breaking encryption (which always fucks up) or backdooring people's end devices (which always fucks up).
I get the desire but there's just no way to do this without fucking things up. You really need to let go of this @EUCommission
