The results are showing up... Now we have to hope for the law to be declined... Already discussed about the chat control law of the EU, here : https://lemmy.ml/post/16469106

The only is avoid centralized chats, using decentralized encrypted ones. For all those which use Watsfuck and others like these Google-Zuckerbot derivates it makes anyway no difference if the EU scan or not their chats, especially using stock iPhone or Android.

I read the text, and didn't find anything on centralize or decentralize messenger. Are you talking about the technical solution they want to use ? The text is very confusing about it.

Lol Facebook was too dumb to even share my father's posts when he joined. Just kept spamming me with rage bait and posts from someone obnoxious I met at a party years before and never really had a real contact with. How is this company supposed to detect anything? To me it's just a cesspool that provides a few people with power.

Let's imagine the error rate would be 0%, anonimity is a right and none of the privacy tools are broken, would you be on board with it? Or are there concerns I am missing here.

With Christian democrats in the majority (preliminary results), it's doubtful the saga is over.
