    The EU has been an incredible force of good for privacy. I am very glad european countries can form such a strong front in this regard.

    • Without the EU passing these privacy laws, it’d be even crazier accessing anything online as all data would be collected, analyzed and sold. Granted, it still occurs, but there’s prevention measures thanks to the EU!

      Unfortunately, the EU Commission is proposing a law to counter CSAM online, which could oblige companies to weaken encryption, undermining privacy for every European citizen.

        Fortunately not all countries accept the proposal yet with Estonia denying it and Germany calling it too far reaching based on the leaked document (iirc) But it is concerning :/
