      Exactly… the next 3 presidents (Cyprus, Ireland, Lithuania) all support the legislation, and the three afterward (Greece, Italy, Latvia) are undecided, but their indecision doesn’t seem to come from a moral standpoint. This puts us in 2029 before the leadership (Luxembourg then Netherlands) actually rejects broad privacy invasion on principle.

      This assessment assumes no sentiment changes on the national levels, which is of course a wrong assumption. It’s important to keep respect for private life on the minds of politicians to prevent delay another attempt. 🫩

      It’s like in school - the kid who doesn’t raise his hand is the one that has to answer the question.

      I believe it means that it is voluntary for the service providers to implement such measures, not that users can opt-in. This means that any E2EE message service providers wouldn’t be required to implement client side scanning, but that any provider not offering E2EE could still scan server side and report.
