Privacy has become a very important issue in modern society, with companies and governments constantly abusing their power, more and more people are waking up to the importance of digital privacy.
In this community everyone is welcome to post links and discuss topics related to privacy.
much thanks to @gary_host_laptop for the logo design :)
For now not mandatory, but if the second part of this initiative passes then this will be quite a problem indeed.
We must prepare.
Start creating RSA/cvEd25519 keys for E-Mail and promoting Matrix/XMPP.
True. Btw than key what you mean is GPG? Or is another thing? I'm interested
I was unaware of this, what? How can something like this pass with 78% of people being against? A very important step was taken with the GDPR, but now we are going to back away in an utter U-turn? I'm very disappointed and concerned about this... What can we do to somehow prevent the second phase (or even revert this)?
This seems to be the boiling frog technique :)
The the 78% against is of course a very leading question.
A proponent of the law would have probably asked: "do you think Whatsapp should be allowed to search their servers for child-porn and report it to the police if found?", which would probably result in 78% approval.
But of course this story is a bit more complex with unintended or maybe intended but not openly stated consequences.
Yeah I see your point, it makes sense.
So this is totally boosting my "Convert everyone to XMPP" project ...
It's also boosting my "Convert everyone to Matrix" project aswell
I think that is really important to teach people about that. Cool objective
The encrypted-mail era is coming.
The page also links to a well-made video about Chatcontrol, schedule, countermeasures & useful additional info: https://www.patrick-breyer.de/en/posts/message-screening/
