1๏ธโƒฃ Completely normal photos, such as holiday pictures ๐Ÿž๏ธ are considered suspicious.

2๏ธโƒฃ So our private family photos or the chats and pictures from your sexting yesterday ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿ† also end up on an official table. So we can throw privacy in the bin ๐Ÿšฎ

Chances are high that most of your European friends have never heard of chat control. So let them know about the danger and what you think about the chat control proposal.

โ€œThe European Commission launched an attack on our civil rights with chat control. I contacted my local MEP to tell him that I oppose the proposal. You can do so too! This Website I found will help you write an e-mail to an MEP using A.I.โ€

Look man, its like this: these surveillance pushes will not stop. Governments want to control everything. You can lobby to stop this this time, then in a year or two you'll be posting this kind of stuff again. One day they'll succeed.

The only real solution is noncompliance. Don't comply, don't use services that comply. Use XMPP. Use a third party matrix server. Use briar. Use simplex. Use session. Use things incapable of complying with anything in the first place.

This sort of legislation really only effects people that give a fuck. It effects people using Facebook and WhatsApp and gmail. It doesn't effect you if you don't want it to. We are a Monero community, we don't comply.
