As opposed to what?
Chat surveillance I guess
Isn't that the UK which isn't EU anymore?
Pretty much everyone's having a go at that.
Including the US, funnily enough.
Chat Control is a new legislation draft. It’s getting momentum in EU institutions
But its nearly unenforcable.. lol
Yes
Trying to get rid of encryption
I believe that’s the UK not the EU.
It's kinda both, and a fair amount more.
E: lol people need to actually read the news. If people think the UK is the only government that wants to read messages then you have your head in the sand.
The EU has expressed a desire for this, the US has, Australia has, Russia has, Israel has, India has, Pakistan has, etc etc.
Speaking desire is not the same as implementing.
Of course they want to have full control, but they are listening to the experts as to why that isn't a good idea.
In that case, neither has implemented, so you can't complain about either.
