@Tutanota Will this apply to privacy-focused apps like Signal?

@Tutanota in the 5 minutes i gave to your call i couldn't find how to help. I looked into the YouTube video (I don't like to be directed to big tech media) but that didn't look like instructions how to take action.What did I miss?
@Tutanota This is not even "450m Europeans." This is basically "the world." When encryption is broken on that side and uploaded to their servers it means people on the other side also have no encryption and their data is just as compromised. Not to mention that if even the one part of the world that tended to get privacy right has become a surveillance state, then there's a pretty much 100% chance other countries outside the EU will fall in line...This affects the whole world.
@Tutanota if this law passes many of our information can be leaked. It have already happened in some public organisms. We should invest in cybersecurity too.
@Tutanota I have always considered myself an European but it is becoming an instrument of mass control. Chat control now and wait for the digital euro from European central bank. And this is going to be probably extended to emails, cloud... We need to find alternatives out of US and out of EU.
@Tutanota geebus France. Your job is to protest your government and your letting them control you for it?
@Tutanota
@Tutanota , wait a minute, when did #Slovenia change from opposing to undecided?Do we need to push (again)?
@Tutanota Write to your MEPs! Ecrivez Γ vos Membres du parlament europenne. Schreiben Sie Ihren Europaabgeordneten.
@Tutanota From every security hole, no matter how well meant, the criminals will profit most. What is next? Should i leave my backdoor unlocked so that the police can enter more easily when there is a burglar in my home? No, the burglars will profit most of the open door.
@Tutanota Honestly, I think the importance of this is overrated. In country where I voted for EU representatives (Latvia) police can do anything they want anyway. It's not always court-admissible, but that's not really important either, because they can do anything they want with or without courts.Besides, it's such a 20th century technology.
@Tutanota We'll keep seeing this garbage submitted every few years, again and again. We see similar in the USA as well. The real answer is that we need to develop overlays on ALL our chats that introduce steganography. Hide our real discussions in plain sight. Its only time till they get this garbage passed in some form. So might as well assume they'll see it all, and shift the fight to a different level.
@Tutanota stuff like this just makes the people they claim to be aiming for dig further down. It wonβt stop them. It will make things unsafe for everyone else, as back doors can be exploited.
@TutanotaSame procedure as last year? Same procedure as every year,. James!In case "#chatcontrol" will, when in place, help to suppress opposition or critics in case ever forces like AfD or other anti-democratic folks come to power.
