For the past weeks I've been reading through *all* the feedback to the EU on #chatcontrol (yes, *all* 414 comments).
Unsurprisingly, most of the feedback is opposed to the regulation (~87%, see image).
Some opponents pointed out issues I hadn't even considered, some suggested useful alternatives to this #MassSurveillance regulation.
If you want to know more, I've written a in-depth blog post about this here: https://maxim.tips/against-chatcontrol/
@mxm My voice: https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/better-regulation/have-your-say/initiatives/12726-Fighting-child-sexual-abuse-detection-removal-and-reporting-of-illegal-content-online/F3336527_en . It is actually sad that out of 447million inhabitants only 414 ( 0.00009% ...) have spoken out on such an important issue. Evidently the European institutions and the Member States give too little information about such a possibility.

Something tells me the feedback is just there for show and it's likely to pass like all the privacy infringements that are law currently.
I finally had some time and uploaded the code & data I generated during this project. You can download it from codeberg: https://codeberg.org/maxim/eufeedback
I still plan to do a blog post on how it all works (and clean up & document the more ugly code parts), but I haven't yet found time and motivation to do that.
Still, I managed to write up a short README, so if you want to toy around with what I analyzed & wrote, have fun!
