In fact it would be illegal but you wouldn't take risks by using them. But the authorities could make them shut down one by one
Even if this is illegal - how would such usage be detected? Your device just makes a request to a random domain on a random VPS, and the traffic is TLS-encrypted - would usage of XMPP/Matrix/whatever be that distinct?
I totally understand and this approval is absolutely ridiculous just because it's almost impossible apply this... But even with almost 0 chance applying to every apps it's better to kill this law as soon as possible
They can't if you use a VPN and the app is not in their jurisdiction
That would be difficult for sure but in fact it would be illegal
I don't care if it's illegal if the law violates people's privacy tbh
This person gets it. If something like this is made illegal, the best way to fight it is just to ignore them. After all, they can't lock up everybody. Then they would have no subjects to enslave. I mean tax. I mean enslave.
Right ๐
I understand totally but it is better to stop this law as soon as possible
Agreed
