Osobom, które nie rozumieją, o co chodzi w tej "wojnie" o szyfrowanie, dlaczego to ważne, tłumaczę na przykładzie:
Jak ze mną rozmawiasz w domu czy na ulicy, twarzą w twarz, to nasza rozmowa jest prywatna. Nikt jej nie nagrywa, nie podsłuchuje.
Jeśli nie możemy się spotkać twarzą w twarz, a mamy internet i możemy komunikować się zdalnie, nadal chcemy, by nasza rozmowa była prywatna. I to zapewnia nam szyfrowanie E2EE.
Na argument, że to pozwala przestępcom na działalność, pytam, czy z ich rozmowami w domu albo na ulicy władze też chcą coś zrobić? Auta i noże też pomagają przestępcom. Też ich zakazać czy reglamentować?
Czy chodzi tylko by nam grzebać w telefonach?
Władze i organy mają wystarczająco narzędzi, by sobie radzić.
#ProtectEU to ściema. To stary #ChatControl w nowej osłonie. Nie dajcie sobie wciskać kitu.

It's back again, and only slightly disguised! The @EUCommission won't give up on undermining European privacy and security and is again on the #ChatControl campaign. In this sequel, it's not to protect children, but to fight terrorism. But #ProtectEU will not do that either. Tell them NO.

#ProtectEU == #GoingDark #ChatControl #DataRetention
The european commission is repackaging #chatcontrol as #protectEU - don't let them change the framing, never use #protectEU, always, always use #chatcontrol - do not let them take control of neither the chats, nor the discussion.
The next presidency proposal for the #ChatControl file now has an official document number:
ST 7080 2025 INIT - NOTE
To be discussed in next Law Enforcement Working Party on Tuesday, 8 April 2025.

Terug van weggeweest: #ChatControl, nu verpakt als #ProtectEU.
Bottom line blijft hetzelfde: meelezen in geencrypteerd verkeer.
Zucht, here we go again.

Not just #ChatControl.
Can't wait for #Orban, and consequently #Putin, to get hold of this:
»This will enable secure #automated exchanges of #fingerprints, #DNA profiles, #vehicle registration data, #facial images, and police #records through EU routers. At national level, Member States need to implement the Information Exchange Directive enhancing information exchange channels for seamless cross-border information flow, while ensuring their integration with Union-level systems, such as SIENA«

EU-initiativet 'Going Dark' er nu blevet lanceret af EU-Kommissionen
De kalder det ProtectEU. Det er en rebranding af #chatcontrol
Nyt navn. Samme gamle propaganda
EU-Kommissionens mål er at "få adgang til krypterede data på en lovlig måde"

Dear @EUCommission
Please listen to us, the whole collective cybersecurity space, the ones actively protecting our personal, professional and government data everyday when we tell you:
There is no way you can make data available to law enforcement that doesn't - massively - make it much easier for adversaries to access it too.
Anyone who tells you different don't know what they're talking about.
That's all.
MastodonMullvad VPN (@mullvadnet@mastodon.online)The EU initiative Going Dark has now been launched by the EU Commission. They call it ProtectEU.
It’s a rebranding of Chat Control. New name. Same old propaganda.
The EU Commission’s goal is to “access encrypted data in a lawful manner, safeguarding cybersecurity and fundamental rights.”
Read the full release from the Commission here:

#Google acaba de llamar #E2EE a un recién estrenado método de cifrado en #GMail que de hecho es la muestra más evidente de lo que podrían querer quienes apoyan #ChatControl.
Las claves de cifrado quedan en mano de los administradores, y quien tenga acceso a ellas puede husmear en las comunicaciones de cualquiera bajo su paraguas. Venden su gestor de contraseñas igual.
Si las llaves de tu coche las custodia otro, no es tu coche.
Con las claves de cifrado sucede lo mismo.
Ars Technica · Are new Google E2EE emails really end-to-end encrypted? Kinda, but not really.

@EUCommission Unfortunally the #eu is going to turn around #chatcontrol and implament a greater threat to privacy by making all not only chatsoftware with a backdoor. Even #china does not have this. #FuckEurope
So here we go again: "EU: These are scary times – let's backdoor encryption!"
Now #chatcontrol is rebranded with the excuse of threats like terrorism, organized crime, surging cybercrime and attacks against our critical infrastructure, instead of child sexual abuse.

WebProNews · EU Possibly Emerging As One Of The Greatest Threats To PrivacyThe European Union, once praised for its pro-privacy legislation, is now leading the charge toward a future with less privacy, one where the government can use your devices to spy on you.
Ei jumalauta. #ChatControl tapettiin taas kerran mutta #EU ei lopeta #E2EE salauksen estämisen yrittämistä. Ny ne sanoo että tää on kansallisen turvallisuuden vuoksi ja Venäjältä suojautumiseen. Voi vittu mitä paskaa. #ProtectEU

”Enda sättet att hindra data från att hamna i fel händer är att inte samla in den.” @mullvadnet sprider klokt budskap i tunnelbanan.

@publicvoit Wow, man, dark
Can't say that I'm not also getting a tiny tingle when it looks as if the EU is getting their collective shit together. Not sure I'd happily welcome the complete transformation of the US into a crypto-fascist state (with nukes) along the way, but that boat seems to have set sail and raised anchor, and is trying to claw its way out of the shallows of US democracy (such as it was), only impeded by the incompetence of their masters and commanders.
... not that I can do anything about that anyway, so okay, let's accept the US as collateral damage. This still assumes that we will get our collective shit together, and not go all #chatcontrol.
