1️⃣ Completely normal photos, such as holiday pictures 🏞️ are considered suspicious.
2️⃣ So our private family photos or the chats and pictures from your sexting yesterday 🍑🍆 also end up on an official table. So we can throw privacy in the bin 🚮
Chances are high that most of your European friends have never heard of chat control. So let them know about the danger and what you think about the chat control proposal.
“The European Commission launched an attack on our civil rights with chat control. I contacted my local MEP to tell him that I oppose the proposal. You can do so too! This Website I found will help you write an e-mail to an MEP using A.I.”
Look man, its like this: these surveillance pushes will not stop. Governments want to control everything. You can lobby to stop this this time, then in a year or two you’ll be posting this kind of stuff again. One day they’ll succeed.
The only real solution is noncompliance. Don’t comply, don’t use services that comply. Use XMPP. Use a third party matrix server. Use briar. Use simplex. Use session. Use things incapable of complying with anything in the first place.
This sort of legislation really only effects people that give a fuck. It effects people using Facebook and WhatsApp and gmail. It doesn’t effect you if you don’t want it to. We are a Monero community, we don’t comply.
This is the way, the state has become a parasite and politics are fully controlled. Criminals are in charge and it is no use pleading with the slave-master for your freedom. If you want it back, take it back.
Obviously there are a lot of corruptions, yeah… But I’d like to believe that we may be able to change things a bit. We may be able to fight back, rectify things…
No objection to that, but I want a fully functional parallel system which we can use to circumvent them anyway.
