I'll keep reading so that I have an idea of what's to come if this passes, but I'm only on page 12 of 199 and there's no sign that things will get any better, so I'm not going to livetoot the whole read-through.

I'll just reiterate that the #chatControl legislation is an absolute shitshow.

The people pushing for this are either ignorant or malicious. They claim to want to protect the public, but their manner of doing so will very obviously harm large groups that are already marginalised.

my last point for now is that while this particular legislation concerns the EU, it is a part of an international effort to expand surveillance.

There's similar efforts in a number of other countries. Even if you aren't a citizen or resident of one of those nations, you are most likely a user of at least one service that will be affected.

This legislation absolutely needs to get shut down now, because every such measure that passes makes it easier to enact similar ones in other nations.
