Like the title states looking for E2EE apps (Android and iOS) without going into much details or needs to be robust enough and easy to use for anyone and stable for operations that are susceptible to constant electronic warfare. I did some research and thought about replacing Signal with Molly and wondering if it will still work if Signal leaves the EU, but am also worried about its updates to patch vulnerabilities in a timely manner. I appreciate the help I am a “Jack of all trades and master of none” when it comes to these types of programs, but am also the go to currently in my unit since I am somewhat knowledgeable about exploits and attacks that can compromise systems would be great if there was an desktop as well (like Signal) and would also be nice if it was FOSS and auditable ( I know that’s kind of redundant ) I know it’s a tall order to ask but figured I would try. I really appreciate the help so much and hope I did things by the rules here and don’t get flamed if this has already been covered ( I searched but my skills with searching the fediverse is low
Pretty sure signal won’t be forced to do anything:
this is from May this year, when Spain proposed this. How in the everliving fuck the EU can get away with violating human rights?
So yeah I’ll eat my hat unsalted if this actually will break encryption
If they actually ban E2EE, I’d like to see all banks, for a start, and most web sites, downgrade https to http. See how long the ban will last then.
“I was just following the law!”
It’s ok the banks have a “too essential to be punished” card
I give it a month before either the ECJ steps in or they quietly change the law/interpretation (Article 13/17 says hi)
you should eat it hashed and salted in protest.
Genius.
So encryption was always a recipe for potatoes
Hashes are not encryption
Well, they don’t need to break encryption, since the scanning of messages is supposed to happen client-side.
And by defenition breaks e2ee. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-to-end_encryption
Technically not touching your valuable encryption would still be an excuse they’d make, wouldn’t it
Even though it functionally does break encryption

They want to also check them with ai. Hash alone would be bad. But ai is worse. Ya got/are young looking gf. Well if ya send nudes some cop will most likely see your nudes if chat controll really comes.

Yes.
They will check their own images and police themselves lol (actually there will be an extra committee for this so just joking)

Here. On page 52, Article 10 3.a
They are explicitly talking about known or new material. Even though they don’t state the technology, AI is the only possible one (maybe there are more but they WILL have the same issue, ai has)
They also go indepth in a centralized db, where all this shit will be stored, to retrain this model.
Yea it is fucked up.

I would guess it rather refers to images. But it doesn’t matter if it is too expensive. Ai is the only thing that can do the stuff they want.

AI is the solution to all our problems… /s
O God, the hash one isn’t bad, just stop there for the sake of all that is holy
The hash one has the one issue of you could simply put political shit in the db and find out your political opponents, but the hash one is debatebal.
