In a sensational turn of events in the fight against Chat Control, a majority in the European Parliament voted today to end the untargeted mass scanning of private communications. In doing so, the Parliament firmly rejected the error-prone and unconstitutional surveillance practices of recent years. Pressure is now mounting on EU governments to respect the MEPs’ vote and bury untargeted mass surveillance in Europe once and for all.

    That “trojan horse” is nothing but a paper tiger since age control will be managed in a completely privacy-friendly way. It is a non-issue. So that is why it is being “overlooked”

    The check will send nothing more than a yes/no verification, and no other forms of identification.

    And the information will be managed by a governmental institute that already has all that information.

        If you can’t understand the technology behind it, please refrain from calling other people names. It makes you look ignorant.

        The EU is very privacy focused, as should be apparent with the post you are literally commenting on.

        Your russian propaganda holds no power here. It didn’t work with chat control, and it won’t work with age verification either.

          gtfo. We all know what age control is in reality. You are playing us, for the oligarchy. Admit it!
