S.1199 - STOP CSAM Act of 2023
This is currently in Congress. The intent is to kill end to end encryption in the United States under the pretense of child safety. If you are in the states, contact your local Congressional representative and tell them to vote against the bill.
I'm surprised there is not more organization against it.

They will do it and then their constitutional court will declare it unconstitutional and then they will do it again. Basically game of the last 2 decades. eventually they’ll manage to stuff the court
Always under the pretense of protecting kids when they actually don't care
