Chat Control is not dead. The EU (still) wants to scan your private messages and photos
The “Chat Control” proposal would legalise scanning of all private digital communications, including encrypted messages and photos. This threatens fundamental privacy rights and digital security for all EU citizens.
In this case, privacy-focused apps would just not implement it, as it’s the voluntary chat control “1.0” which we already had before. Of course, it would probably be used to eventually have another go at the mandatory scanning again.
Good ol’ moving the overton window.
