Around 99% of all chat reports sent to police in Europe come from a single US corporation: Meta. US tech giants are acting as private auxiliary police forces—without any effective European oversight.
Thats very interesting. Assuming that whatsapp is actually e2ee that means instagram, facebook and threads account for 99% of all chat reports. That means all dms on there have been getting scanned. Sounds like people should leave those platforms.
Or maybe people are mislead by (and putting to much trust in) the term “end-to-end encryption”
Sure its encrypted in transit between you and the person you’re exchanging messages with.
But that doesnt mean the Whatsapp app itself isnt scanning your chats on the phone.
Yep. Ugh, garbage companies!
Thank fuck.
For now.
The push for Chat Control is heavily driven by foreign-funded lobby groups and tech vendors.
Once again. In a few months, they’ll do the same and this will repeat until the law passes.
You didn’t even understand the context. It’s about a law that already passed as temporarily and is about to run out.
“Pressure is now mounting on EU governments to respect the MEPs’ vote” I do love Patrick for all the good work he does but
isn´t this like the 3rd time already? lol I talked to a few MEPs about chat control and other stuff - while the focus was on chat control the EU got this shit sneakily approved
To do this effectively, they’d have to ban facebook/whatsapp, which are the two most popular chat apps in Europe.
Comes back again and again.
