#EUGoingdark
So things on the internet kinda suck right about now. But if there's anything good about an uproar is that all the worms tend to crawl out of the woodwork.

So hey, fellow Euro-bros, look at this. This is bad. And it's happening right now.

#ChatControl was just the beginning.

According to some new info, there's plans to track in many more ways EU-Wide, breaking device encryption and prohibiting metadata encryption or obscuring. It's nicknamed the "EU Going Dark".

I wonder what happened to the "Going Dark" thing, one of the _other_ mass surveillance initiatives that the EU has going on alongside Chat Control.

Kind of goes to show how opaque the process has been that it's hard to find any information on what's going on with it after late 2024.

Punkt 2 verstehe ich nicht. Despotenfreiheit? Ich sehe in E-Autos prinzipiell rollende Datenkraken, völlig unterschätzt, viel zu wenig reguliert und diesbezüglich potentiell hochgefährlich.

Die #EUGoingDark-Gruppe ist dabei gefährl. Maßnahmen zur Massenüberwachung reinzuwaschen & stellt den Einsatz von Verschlüsselung unter Generalverdacht. Der massive Eingriff in unsere Grundrechte & andere Kollateralschäden werden dabei völlig verdrängt.👮🕵️
