DCoder 🇱🇹❤🇺🇦<p>&gt; In February 2024 the European Court of Human Rights issued a ruling [Podchasov v Russia: <a href="https://hudoc.echr.coe.int/fre#{%22itemid%22:[%22001-230854%22]}" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">hudoc.echr.coe.int/fre#{%22ite</span><span class="invisible">mid%22:[%22001-230854%22]}</span></a> ] which ruled that laws requiring weakening of encryption for all users were "not proportionate".</p><p><a href="https://ohai.social/tags/ChatControl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ChatControl</span></a></p>
DCoder 🇱🇹❤🇺🇦<p>&gt; The state is filled with Paperclip Maximising institutions, charged with just one job and not given any duty to see how that job should be limited in favour of the overall health of a society.</p><p>&gt; Surveillance is a particularly stark example of that tension. If only the state authorities could introduce a perfect panopticon, they could eliminate all crime.</p><p><a href="https://www.thegist.ie/the-gist-a-bad-state-of-affairs/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">thegist.ie/the-gist-a-bad-stat</span><span class="invisible">e-of-affairs/</span></a></p><p><a href="https://ohai.social/tags/ChatControl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ChatControl</span></a></p>

Hans van ZijstAs we all knew, the next ChatControl proposal is here. Again, government and AI providers are pushing for a world where all our digital communication is analysed, where there is no more private communication.<br><br>Why would we want to live in a 1984-like state and be at the constant risk of being summoned to appear in court for a Kafkaesque case of child pornography, where the "computer says you're guilty"? I don't!<br><br>I've mailed all my #<a class="" href="https://social.woefdram.nl/search?tag=EU" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">EU</a> representatives, and I urge all #<a class="" href="https://social.woefdram.nl/search?tag=Europeans" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">Europeans</a> to do the same.

McWabbit 🍋🌻🍉<p>Dear <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/EU" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>EU</span></a> 🇪🇺 citizens: Renewed efforts are made to re-introduce an even more stringent <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/ChatControl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ChatControl</span></a> to spy on our online lives. All in the name of safety. But we all know it is about control. No matter if your data is securely saved, it will be used by whoever owns it.<br> <br>A regime change like in some former democracies (e.g. USA), a data leak through a hack or human error, or even an opinion on basic human rights (UK,DE,NL), are all it takes to suddenly make the lives of you and yours miserable or put it in danger.</p><p>Sign petitions, contact your <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/MEPs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MEPs</span></a>. But the most passive way to participate in activism that is still effective, is to please vote for <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/progressive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>progressive</span></a> parties who are opposed to Chat Control and have a decent understanding of <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/IT" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>IT</span></a> (security) and the digital services. </p><p>Avoid <a href="https://tenforward.social/tags/conservatives" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>conservatives</span></a> and any party that has moved up to the right in the political spectrum. <br>They moved, because they are infiltrated, indoctrinated and straight up bought by the same corporations and organizations who are supposed to be kept in check in the European market.<br>These parties also either have f-all knowledge of IT (security) and should not be the ones deciding policies on it. Or in rare cases, actually possesses the knowledge, and use it to introduce policies with malicious intent.</p>
