Wie können die Europäer die EU davon abhalten, jede private Botschaft zu scannen und die Verschlüsselung für alle außer Politiker zu brechen?

No one knows because even if your government is opposing this BS map isn’t showing this. Who made opposing/neutral in same color?

Can this be avoided by not using Google or Apple OS?

EXCEPT POLITICIANS. Just fuck off.

This entire thing stinks. Road to China but without long term planning.

What a fucking disgrace, it’s clear one cannot take fundamental rights for granted. 

What I am really concerned of is that there will be a huge leak of personal info, including passwords, legal data, personal preferences, even privat stuff.This may and will be misused by the people in control.Can this prevent certain crimes, surely, but, most likely it will create a whole layer of the other criminal agenda.

Graphene OS should help. But we would be a few among the masses.

The problem is the following in my opinion.

This works for educated countries, where people elect non corrupt people. If all EU was in this case, I don’t see a problem with the gov controlling the phones and messages. This would stop the russian hybrid attack, this would stop a lot of terrorist organizations, radicals, and so on.

In cases where there’s corrupt politicians, this gives them the power to silence and control narratives and maintain their corruption mandate

The problem is that they’ll get it eventually. We should already be thinking of solutions that would just make this impossible.

I’m surprised nothing like a petition has been created / widely circulated here.

„Except politicians“? Yeah, of course, rules for thee but not for me. Lots of horse shit these days that flies as „child protection“ to argument for Orwellian laws.. how stuff like this can be compatible with the principles of freedom, civil/human rights?

In most european ountries, chatcontrol is unconstitutional – as it breaks the consitutional right to privacy of communication bye letters, emails or otherwise. Please contact whichever body enforces your consitution, and they can sue the elected goverment for breaking the consitution.

As this also breaks one of the human rights enforced by the EU – of privacy of communication, even if it somehow, unlikely, loses within a country, it can be brought to the human rights courts, where it will for sure lose.

Online petitions don’t work. Just enforce your rights as citizens, your consitutional rights. Contact whoever is enforcing your consitution and point out that your elected goverment is breaking it – which ever body enforces the constituion is separate from the goverment and there to control the goverment in times like this,

Dude. Sweden is infested with criminal gangsters doing everything from hit jobs for the Iranian government to overtaking local institutions. Always killing the competition with guns and bombs. There is no way in hell the politicians will shoot down tools that can help the justice system catch these fuckers. Sadly, I think the voter majority agree.

Would you let the mailman read your letter before you seal it?

That’s exactly what the EU’s “Chat Control” will do; forcing your phone to scan every message, photo, and file before it’s encrypted on WhatsApp, Signal, Telegram, and more.

Politicians would be exempt. You wouldn’t.

This is being sold as “child protection,” but the EU’s own legal service says it violates fundamental rights. Once a backdoor into encryption exists, it’s not just governments who can use it. Hackers, criminals, and hostile states can too.

Today (with real encryption): Your message is locked on your phone. Not even WhatsApp, Signal, or Telegram (secret chat) can read it. Only the recipient can open it.

Under Chat Control: Your message is opened and scanned on your phone before encryption. If software thinks it finds “prohibited” content, even by mistake, it’s sent to authorities.

Austria opposes the plan, but 19 EU countries already support it. If Germany joins them, the law could pass in October.

TL;DR: The EU wants to scan all private messages before encryption. Politicians would be exempt. If Germany backs the law in October, it could pass. This kills privacy for everyone else. Petition here: Stop Chat Control

The current Swedish government has been a supporter of the EU’s „chat control“ initiative, also known as the Child Sexual Abuse (CSA) Regulation. Sources indicate that Sweden has consistently backed the proposal in EU Council meetings and listed it as a priority during its Council presidency.
However, the Swedish parliament itself has been divided on the issue. While the government has supported the regulation, there have been strong reactions from politicians across the political spectrum in Sweden, with some expressing concerns about privacy and fundamental rights.

I’m ashamed to see that so many are willing to accept privacy intrusions as long as someone screams „child abuse“. Don’t get me wrong, child abuse is horrible, but you can’t justify anything and everything by mentioning a single use case without mentioning all the ways it could be mis-used. Governmentally sponsored surveillance is a very slippery slope, and back doors into any and all communication is a serious breach of privacy.
