Zal België uiteindelijk toegeven aan de chat controle regeling van de EU?

1. It’s a really bad idea and frankly tyrannical based on a weak premise. Real criminals will just move to more basic apps and other methods instantly. I think what it’s really about it stopping organization of protests and “wrong-think” by having a backdoor in to your chats. If this law passes, it will literally be too dangerous to use these apps since you can easily incriminate yourself or have things exploited via the backdoor by the government itself or other bad actors.

2. My prediction: they will go for a compromise, any compromise. Doesn’t really matter what’s in it, they will get to vote yes with a story about how they kept it reasonable to their base and journalists.

3. If this ever passes we should start using the trigger words in all our communication.

4. Stupid politicians, not understanding basic math.

5. They will do it eventually, even if it is illegal.

   > Article 7 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union states that **everyone has the right to respect for their private and family life, home, and communications**

6. Stoopid question perhaps, but seriously… is the main pro argument really to combat child pornography? I cannot imagine that this enormous piece of legislation could be a means to reach that (albeit, very noble) goal?

7. Super fucking weird that “Chat control” is not mentioned, not even once, when you search for it on VRT NWS. It’s a super hot topic, super critical for our privacy and democracy, yet there’s absolute radio silence from our media. Weiiiiird.

8. The total percentages add up to more than 100%
   I assume some liberty in rounding those numbers
