Fight Chat Control

What happened today?

Behind closed doors, the Law Enforcement Working Party group approved the revised Danish Chat Control compromise with broad support. While mandatory scanning had officially been dropped, Article 4 of the new text reframes and reintroduces it by obliging providers of e-mail, chat, and messenger services to take “all appropriate risk mitigation measures”. This effectively forces providers to scan all messages, including private, end-to-end encrypted content.

The same article outlaws anonymous communication by requiring every citizen to verify their age before accessing a service, kneecapping whistleblowers, journalists, political activists, and people seeking help who depend on anonymity. Article 6 further imposes a digital house arrest and would ban minors from installing software which comes with a significant risk of grooming, such as WhatsApp, Instagram, and online games like Roblox.

What happens next?

The legislation now moves to the Coreper (Committee of Permanent Representations) for approval. Without major political objections, the Council will formally adopt its position. At this stage, both the Council and Commission unite in imposing mass surveillance on all 450 million citizens of the European Union and we enter a rushed trilogue. Unfortunately, while the mandate of the European Parliament does not suffer from the same flaws, the Parliament is traditionally known for giving in.

What now?

@lelehier not just valve, but the entire industry at large. just so happens that valve reminded me of this

@stella@mastodon.catgirl.cloud That's an absolutely valid point. Somehow I didn't realize immediately that they didn't announce a price, even though that's one of the first critique points I make when other brands announce a new product.

hot take: all product announcements should be legally required to name a price immediately

because i view the current culture of "reveal exciting new product first, then only reveal its way too expensive later" as a predatory tactic to get people hyped and even sort of "dependent" on the product, making it more likely for them to buy it no matter what price it ends up having, whereas if the price was revealed initially then people could make a much more informed and realistic decision immediately

Wow, war für mich unter dem Radar. Und auch noch staatlich gefördert. Spätestens wenn die Ende des Jahres online gehen, sollten wir alle unsere Ärzte auffordern, von #doctolib hierhin umzusteigen
