The title is missing a second part: "after China, the US, Russia, the UK, etc.".
I get that privacy is potentially in danger if chatcontrol passes (ie. it's not right now) and that to raise awareness is worthwhile, but misrepresenting one of the best places privacy-wise as "one of the greatest threats" is just dishonest.
None of those countries are trying to dismantle encryption entirely so no, I disagree.
Well, the UK sure is trying, and the US was also thinking about it (never got to law-making at least)
