Quote from the EDRi newsletter:

"From May 8, Meta is stopping end-to-end encryption on Instagram direct messages. If you use DMs to stay connected to friends and loved ones, this matters for you. Without encryption, your messages are no longer secure. They no longer stay between just you and the person you messaged - Meta could also take a peek. "

It's finally online!

A very short ad made for the NGO EDRi me and my team made a couple of months ago.

Be scanned - or get banned! - European Digital Rights (EDRi)

In the latest in a string of alarming developments, the Belgian government has proposed a new supposed 'solution' to the Chat Control deadlo

"In the latest in a string of alarming developments, the Belgian government has proposed a new supposed ‘solution’ to the Chat Control (Child Sexual Abuse Regulation) deadlock in the Council. Providers of private communications services must ask people to consent to faulty AI-based scanning of their private chats, they suggest – or be banned from sharing images, videos and URLs!

...

There’s a reason why we’ve always said the EU needs to take a different approach. It’s because there is no way to mass scan and report on people’s private communications without violating the core of their right to privacy and creating massive security vulnerabilities. The search for a magic technical solution is doomed to fail because there is no magic solution to the serious problem of child sexual abuse – which instead requires multi-faceted societal-level and political solutions."
