> just put a backdoor in that only we can access

Who is arguing for a backdoor? Do you actually know what are the proposed technical approaches or are you making assumptions?

> people who actually know better saying that's not possible

What is not possible?

> all these stupid "chat control" like proposals

For example here, you make your argument by stating that these proposal are "stupid". There is no effort that I can see to even try to understand where the other party is coming from.

And that is an issue, in my opinion. I think that a productive and honest conversation about a complex issue like this one requires empathy with the other party's position.

The 14 EU countries pushing for this policy to become law. Do you actually know the proposed technical approaches or are you just making assumptions?

>>What is not possible?

See my previous comments. I made it quite clear.

In situations such as this your empathy is misplaced. It should not be with the bureaucrat seeking access to your private conversations under the false pretense of "keeping you safe" from w/e today's boogeyman is. It should be with the people who's safety is bolstered by the ability to have private conversations.

If you don't understand why this sort of stupid chat control policy is bad then there is no productive or honest conversation to be had.
