      Basically scanning communications and breaking encryption, under the guise of predictably stopping child abuse

          Force all the big platforms to share their encrypted data. Banning end-to-end encryption. It’s all very stupid and will never actually catch any bad guys.

            I have been running my own matrix server andere cliënt for a while. So if I keep running it and just don’t update it, that would suddenly be illegal? Geus it is time to see how my for relay is doing.

              No any self hosted isn’t on the radar. By big, they mean the centralized giants, i.e. Meta, Google, Telegram, Signal(?) etc.

                    Not talking about workforce, talking about paperwork and beurocracy involved with immigration. At the start of invasion workforce could not keep up with amount of immigration form filed by immigrant.

          Originally governments wanted backdoors into encryption protocols, but now they seem to want client side scanning (i.e. scanning messages on your phone before it’s encrypted and sent out)

      If I understand correctly, its what the NSA “allegedly” doesn’t do to U.S. citizens already. Except, these countries are being public about it. This way they can actually follow through without the “secret getting out”.
