#22>Now Paris “on the whole” agrees with the draft. France welcomes both mandatory chat control and client-side scanning.
A few months ago, a broad security law was passed by the National Assembly in France. Initially, this law contained provisions, including the scanning of private messages, which were removed from the main text by a large majority of lawmakers, as it was deemed too intrusive.
The few officials (including Macron) who now claim that "France is OK with chat control" represent a minority that currently holds power in a country whose government was ousted less than two weeks ago.
Crooks.

Protests are forbidden too.

#24Does anyone really think it won't pass?
In the legislative sense, it might eventually pass.
As has happened in every case so far (with increasing intensity and ease), the internet will route around it.

That is how the government is trying to save face now that Disney decided to stand up to them. Their threats are public, their later lies do not change them.

How will the internet route around client side scanning? Some here will not be affected but I suspect the masses would have a harder time assuming they are even aware that cell phones, Windows recall and Mac mediaanalysisd are performing scans. Most people do not install custom phone OS images.

#30What I don't understand is, why don't the authorities think the actual bad guys will avoid the surveillance?
It seems to me that organized crime will find their own solution, and the rest of us will occasionally have a snooping policeman checking our private messages. It's not unknown, even in Denmark, that people who are given access to private data will abuse it, eg snooping on ex girlfriends, that kind of thing.
Why do people think this chat control thing will be effective?
