@alyx Are you asking for a list of countries that are moving fast towards a surveillance state with that question? :neocat_googly_woozy: @CatboyCody That wasn't exactly my goal, no :neocat_laugh_nervous: But actually kinda getting desperate :neocat_googly_shocked: @alyx @CatboyCody I mean, I could always go for a dysfunctional one like idk Trinidad and Tobago. Or one that has better things to do like ukraine or palestine. Anecdote! I worked for a Swiss company a while back and they had impressively strict regulation around privacy. I can't speak to Swiss culture in general. @alyx all of them have FOMO but iirc germany is one of the few ones that, for instance, disapproved of chatcontrol @notsureither Oh no, our interior ministry was really pushing for it. But, then got "overruled" by the leading party due to the bad press. Now the new idea they are pushing for is introducing a law, allowing police forces to "sneak" / break into your home so they can install spy software on your devices. |
@alyx Not that I know.
