You didnt answer anything or refute anything, you just say that its ridiculous and not to be worried about the rightward leap. Chat control is an issue. Leaders are making public remarks re VPNs and private industry is trying to involve itself with the ID space as it grows as a necessity.

The implementation of digital IDs is where there is scope for abuse. Of course they can be done well, I would be delighted for a sovereign zero knowledge system to be implemented. Estonia has had a good system for a long time.

Chat control weakens encryption which is an issue for VPNs who have e2e encryption.

Here is the link for adult content requiring third party system confirmation of ID https://digital-strategy.ec.europa.eu/en/policies/eu-age-verification

Privacy, security and being open sourcr should be priorities for any system legally required.

Do you sit and wait to be impacted by something before you consider forming an opinion on it andk maybe acting?

IDs and digital IDs are not the same as the discussion surrounding online identification legislation. One is state ID that is pretty common. The other is tech companies gettimg a data harvesting opportunity.

I didnt make the claim, but there is ample evidence to support it from where I sit.

It likely is not their only grievance as other things exist like porn blocking, ID implementations and VPN discussions.

Also chat control is reviewing private conversations. It is a provacy breach. There is no circumstance where this is not abusable. Here are some truths to how the law is presented:

1: nothing can be seen, only if certain pre registered files are recognised 2: politicians, military and associated personnel are exempted.

Meaning it can see more than nothing or else it is acceptable for these people to possess these materials.

It is also able to controlled a granular level person to person.

Where is the support for this? I believe they would but as I understand it they cut cloud services, not core functionality.

Chat control is an issue tbough why ignore it?
