"We must break with the totally erroneous perception that it is everyone's civil liberty to communicate on encrypted messaging services."

@chatcontrol We must break with the totally erroneous perception that it is technically feasible to outlaw encryption.
@ondra @chatcontrol they're not outlawing encryption. Chat Control is to be implemented BEFORE encryption (or after decryption) 💀
@stooovie @chatcontrol They'd essentially have to in the end, though. There's a ton of encrypted communication tools already out there, including their source code. Mandating "chat control" would mean that anything that allows end-to-end encrypted communication between people would become illegal. What about the non-EU versions that won't comply? S/MIME or PGP encrypted mail? Etc. It all has to be banned as well, right?
