    The base problem is the lack of an US privacy Policy, which don’t exist. In the EU an invasive surveilling like this is only possible after an court order on investigated persons because of an crime, or in case of certain events where there is a high risk of an attack, but this decision never depends on the police themselves.

      The US protects source code under free speech. Meanwhile the EU is trying to ban encryption.

      I wish we had some tech regulations but at least we can try to protect ourselves

        Banning encryption was idea from the conservative and right wing parties, but no proceed. It’s not all perfect in the EU, but in these aspects light Years from the USA, which we also notice in the EU products of the big brother companies. f not, the fines are drastic.
