Another small community run web forum announces it will shut due to the Online Safety Act. We warned the act would harm freedom of expression, and that's what is now happening. gamingonlinux.com/forum/topi…

🇬🇧Dutch Parliament just passed an exemplary resolution on #ChatControl with broad majority +++ "irreconcilable concerns about the proportionality of the European CSAM Regulation" +++ "detection order to be issued on the private communications of all citizens" is unacceptable +++ Government and experts to draft "an alternative European proposal to combat the dissemination of images of online child abuse"

Case in point: there's no way to build a backdoor that only the "good guys" can use.
When the entire technical community says that the EU's ChatControl legislation + similar pose serious cybersecurity threats, we're not exaggerating for effect.

What's up in India? This does not look good
Under India's new draft Broadcast Bill, @taylorswift13 will need to get her songs evaluated by a Content Evaluation Committee in India, with people from women& child welfare, SC/ST reps.
You need better people for @MIB_India, @AshwiniVaishnaw.

Para quem não estava por aqui da parte da manhã, uma 🧵 a não perder!
A @RTP2 fez um Sociedade Civil sobre #metadados com um ex-inspector da polícia, um ex-juiz, e um representante de titulares de direitos (GEDIPE/MAPINET/FEVIP). Daquelas coincidências: todos ex-PJ!
O resultado foram tantos tesourinhos que nem sabemos por onde começar! TOP 5: 🧵

#ChatControl vote suspended indefinitely (with regards to Belgian Presidency). This is huge news but it is not the end, Hungarian Presidency already has plans to prioritise this proposal over the next 6 months, so work must continue.

The agenda point to potentially adopt a common position on the CSAM law has been removed, according to two EU diplomats.

The EU commissioner for Justice finally says the quiet part out loud, that the goal of #ChatControl is to break encrypted messaging.

The EU Commission finally admits *on record* that its #CSARegulation proposal would 👏break 👏 encryption, as Vera Jourova's comments at @EU_EDPS Summit. This contradicts 3 years of @YlvaJohansson's : "#CSAR doesn't break encryption."

And I am sure it is just a coincidence that this proposal is being pushed *right after* the European elections and not before

Along with the NSA, European governments who have been trying to undermine encryption for years.... There is no need to look to far. But yes, other intelligence agencies will be pleased as well with our new "standard" for encryption
… Because if you backdoor encryption the first to walk thru it with be China and Russia … theguardian.com/technology/a…

"Für den Verbraucher würde die #Chatkontrolle mit einer deutlichen Verschlechterung des Angebots im Bereich der Messengerdienste einhergehen", warnt die Welt heute.
Bis zur Abstimmung morgen hast du noch einen Tag Zeit, die #Chatkontrolle zu stoppen: patrick-breyer.de/

1/3 48 civil society orgs & 26 individual experts call on Member States representatives to ❌REJECT @EU2024BE's latest #CSAR compromise.
The text is flawed & harmful. It will enable #MassSurveillance & undermine #encryption.
