📣This is your reminder that the fight against #ChatControl is still NOT over yet📣 Last month the negotiations for ChatControl 2.0 failed. Thanks to your support #ChatControl 2.0 and #masssurveillance don't happen🥳 However, the battle is still NOT over yet as the threat remains to keep ChatControl 1.0 as a permanent legislation beyond April 2028😡 Negotiations for this are planned to continue in November which is why we at Tuta will continue our fight ✊ Find out more 👉 https://tuta.com/blog/voluntary-scanning-google-microsoft

@Tutanota@mastodon.social Thank you for staying on this. Client-side scanning doesn't "weaken" end-to-end encryption, it removes the point of it: the moment a provider can be forced to read content before it's sealed, "we can't read it" stops being true. We're building on the same bet, keys on the device and the server only ever holding ciphertext, so there's no switch to flip when a government comes asking. Keep fighting.

@Tutanota@mastodon.social Do I understand correctly? Chat control 2.0 won't happen but it would have allowed all communications to be scanned and every company should implement this. Chat control 1.0 is the same but companies 'could' do it, not 'should' do it.

@Tutanota@mastodon.social remember that every report, even the false positives ones ends up on Palantir's servers
