Thank you for all your messages and let me assure that I hear and understand your worry regarding ChatControl CSAM Danish proposal. We must stop this. ❗️

👉 The Danish EU Presidency is pushing a new, even more radical and unbelievable, version of the so called Chat Control CSAM proposal. The vote is now scheduled for October 14.

If the Hungarian proposal was bad, the Danish version is even more extreme pushing for a creation of an Orwellian world.

👉 It includes the mandatory mass scanning of private communications and aims to break secure encryption by forcing client-side scanning into the private messaging apps. ‼️

☝️ The proposal as it stands now would force companies to scan for, not only known but also, "unknown" material using experimental and unreliable AI.

☝️ The government and military accounts will be exempt from this intrusive and unreliable scanning. Sounds like an authoritarian leader's dream. 😣

This poses a massive risk of exposing our private communications and photos. Also non-transparent AI would make decisions about leaking your personal conversations and private photos.

This plan violates blatantly our fundamental rights due to accessing the content of private citizens. This will also create better access to criminals to our messaging services and achieve nothing to protect our children - the opposite.❗️

👉 The next critical meeting is on September 12. Governments will be finalizing their positions by then. We must now ensure all countries and our citizens understand what this proposal stands for. ☝️ This would violate our privacy and not protect any children.

The European Parliament must also stand against mass scanning and breaking encryption. ❗️
