This is framing. I live in the Netherlands, who voted against this version of ChatControl light. Messenger apps are now allowed not nog forced to scan messages and report incidents (mostly aimed at child pornography i understand).
Sounds good maybe, but here it is feared that scanning PRIVATE messages is normalised in this way, and will be made compulsary in the future.
So all things considered a bad fucking day for privacy. If anything the EU moves back to ChatControl after the initial version was rejected (rightly so in my opionion.)
Exactly.
“The headlines are misleading: Chat Control is not dead, it is just being privatized,” warns Patrick Breyer
This is framing. They back away from forcing companies offensively, now they tell them they got to implement technology to protect against it.
It’s less clear what the hell now happens, but threatens companies if they don’t implement something. The result will now be the same but the marketing is easier, and that’s clearly the goal.
Under the new rules, online service providers must assess the risk that their services could be misused to spread depictions of child sexual abuse or to contact children. Based on this assessment, they must take measures to mitigate this risk.
(Emphasis mine)
That is not actually voluntary. The drafters of this bill are playing wordgames to trick committee members into passing mandatory chat scanning.

Nope!

No, they have not.
for now. yall havent deposed the people trying to do it just yet.
… bit just for now, I’m afraid.
The strategy is to keep proposing this bullshit until the public gets tired of raising an outcry every time. Once it’s been proposed and abandoned a dozen times, nobody takes it seriously, then they can pass it without too much resistance.
Good fucking news for once
