Pretty sure signal won't be forced to do anything:
this is from May this year, when Spain proposed this. How in the everliving fuck the EU can get away with violating human rights?
So yeah I'll eat my hat unsalted if this actually will break encryption
If they actually ban E2EE, I’d like to see all banks, for a start, and most web sites, downgrade https to http. See how long the ban will last then.
“I was just following the law!”
It’s ok the banks have a “too essential to be punished” card
I give it a month before either the ECJ steps in or they quietly change the law/interpretation (Article 13/17 says hi)
you should eat it hashed and salted in protest.

Genius.
So encryption was always a recipe for potatoes
Hashes are not encryption
Well, they don't need to break encryption, since the scanning of messages is supposed to happen client-side.
And by defenition breaks e2ee. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/End-to-end_encryption
Technically not touching your valuable encryption would still be an excuse they'd make, wouldn't it
Even though it functionally does break encryption
They want to also check them with ai. Hash alone would be bad. But ai is worse. Ya got/are young looking gf. Well if ya send nudes some cop will most likely see your nudes if chat controll really comes.

AI is the solution to all our problems... /s
Yes.
They will check their own images and police themselves lol (actually there will be an extra committee for this so just joking)

Here. On page 52, Article 10 3.a
They are explicitly talking about known or new material. Even though they don't state the technology, AI is the only possible one (maybe there are more but they WILL have the same issue, ai has)
They also go indepth in a centralized db, where all this shit will be stored, to retrain this model.
Yea it is fucked up.
I would guess it rather refers to images. But it doesn't matter if it is too expensive. Ai is the only thing that can do the stuff they want.
O God, the hash one isn't bad, just stop there for the sake of all that is holy
The hash one has the one issue of you could simply put political shit in the db and find out your political opponents, but the hash one is debatebal.
