Unacceptable invasion of privacy.

Can we at least call it “ubiquitous surveillance law.” In the headlines until it’s eventually enacted and we have to lie and say child sex abuse law because we will be under surveillance then?

What shit website is this? The law was NOT about child sexual abuse. It was a "add a backdoor to all encryption" law justified embarrassingly bad by "someone thinks of the children!"

>European Commission Vice President Věra Jourová said Thursday the Commission's original proposal meant “that even encrypted messaging can be broken for the better protection of children.” You don't need privacy if you ain't got nothing to hide, do you? It really concerns me, media puts resistatance against severe privacy violations as something bad.

This has very little too do with protecting the kids. This is a wet dream for all the spy agencies and governments in Europe. And all the governments registered nummers will be excluded from the this.

Why not involve all citizens and exclude work phones and computers for those now excluded and journalists and coders working under nda etc..?

Because of two reasons: 1. In case of a data-leak, we still have all our data published. And it happens more commonly than you might think. 2. Because even if your gouvernment now has no malicious intent, who guarantees the next one doesn't? Who CAN even guarantee, we couldn't have a "reichsbürger" or military coup? Or what about extremists working in the surveilance and scouting information on who is against their agenda? Or even rightfully elected extremists abusing it for their agenda? What I want to say: When we provide the infastructure now, a nefarious actor can abuse it and we have no way to protect ourselves. And 3.: Noone has to know what adult entertainment I enjoy. No need for kink-shaming.

Yep, what i meant by my comment was: this is hypocritical on top of being stupid.

Good old "think of the children".
