I laughed at this, as an european. I mean just this year we've had like 3 scares with chat control, and the latest news is that they're still trying / succeeding on some fronts. Please don't reduce such complicated matters to red vs. blue, it's really more complicated and there are no easy solutions anywhere.

Strange to compare "scares" with a business model that's 20 years old now. Sure the EU is far from perfect but it's like comparing a well known problem to a potential one. One is bad, the other might sucks. It's definitely not equivalent.

We agree, but not for the reasons you think we do.

Chatcontrol is literally 1984. It's mandated at the provider level. You can't opt out.

You can always chose not to participate in the social media, sharing whatever you do. You can't not participate in chat control. Same same, but different.
