Chat ControlWhy I oppose private-message scanning in the EU

Chat Control is an EU proposal that would allow private messages to be scanned in an attempt to detect CSAM. Protecting children matters. Scanning everyone's private messages is not a proportionate response.

It conflicts with rights protected by the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights, including Article 7 and Article 8.

I will not add EU-mandated spyware or private-message scanning to software I build
