also, I was surprised that in my conservative country no MEP voted with acceptance. but maybe it’s because the proposal included adding clauses like this?
(v) not applied to interpersonal communications to which end-to-end encryption is, has been or will be applied;
That sounds kinda reasonable then. If the company has access to the chat logs in plain text, they should probably be scanning it for CSAM. Though the use of AI to identify it is concerning, given the low accuracy. And I guess there’s also the risk of communications with someone’s doctor being flagged.
i don’t understand, was EPP for or against the extension ? Cause my understanding was that they asked to have a second vote even if the first one already rejected the extension.
BY ONE FUCKING VOTE!

On reflection it’s still a dumb law.
does it mean that this vote was only about the extension of the regulation that allowed voluntary participation in scanning for chat providers?
honestly, that’s the lesser of the worries, we know facebook and fo are scanning all messages going through them no matter what
Thats actually insane in itself that it got that close. Next time they will succeed. :/
People are so stupid to support this. They dont seem to understand that its never about protecting anyone and its always about building dystopia.
