Denmark has reintroduced Chat Control, a bill that would require all message on the internet--including encrypted ones--to be scanned for illegal material to (allegedly) protect children. The article doesn't mention the current state of the legislation, but it was previously planned that politicians, police, and intelligence agents would be exempted from scanning.

This joins other initiatives: age verification for adult sites, proposed mandatory data retention and lawful access requirements for police, and that UN Cyber Crime treaty that would increase surveillance and police powers while also requiring enhanced cooperation between countries with fewer safeguards against abuse. I don't have links handy for those at the moment.

The EU and the UK have been watching America's slide to fascism and decided they want a piece of the action.

By mandating a backdoor, of course.

If you think the EU going after internet controls is in response to American fascism then you haven't been paying attention. They've been trying to do this for a very long time.

Pretty poor honestly.

It seems like you could pass a bill that makes it illegal to use corrective lenses while driving to protect the children these days, because basically all critical thought and attention span is gone from the world.

Of course politicians won't be recorded.

Because if it's one thing seeing the cesspit of America's leadership (both sides of the isle), all the known deviants in Britain that were covered up for ages, and just common sense in general could tell you politicians are bastions of morality and definitely not the first people who should be subject to this sort of thing.

In a just world those up top get more restrictions and oversight because when they fuck up (and they fuck up basically all the time TBQH) people die, economies go to shit, lives get ruined, so on and so forth.

Seeing the world leapfrog into a dystopian hellscape (even before global warming kickstarts the end of civilization through global famines in two decades time!) makes me profoundly glad I'm not bringing a child into this bullshit. The planet is being destroyed and mega corporations are running around frying everyones brains for profit and it's all just going to keep circling the drain until the end whenever that ends up being. Blegh.

It's really insidious, too, because they know that it's political suicide to go against a bill that on paper is intended to protect children, even when its true purpose is far more nefarious (and may not even protect children at all).
