The Chat Control 1.0 rule is simply that organisations like Meta are allowed to scan messages if they want to. In other words your Facebook messages are not private from Facebook. Surely we already knew and expected that.

Chat Control 2.0 is the worrying one because it mandates scanning and bans E2EE.

These two things should not have both been given the same branding.

Tough week for euros. Cars that record your face while driving and now apps snooping on communications.

Perhaps in the future cars will not only record your face but also listen in for hate speech. Most cars have SOS and GPS modules so calling the police if someone in the car shouts a slur is just connecting some code together.

Car could also become judge and executioner. Swift justice is just one curve away

Well, it is some kind of social control. People who conform, have more rights than those who reject fascism.

It's not particularly effective with school shootings in the USA.

I feel like this one should not be removed because people want to continue discussing and that's easier on a newer thread.

Different news source. But same topic.

Slaves also have no right to privacy. This EU variant is doomed to failure.
