The EU wants creepy AI to scan EVERY message you send. Even the encrypted ones. 😱

But guess who’s EXEMPT?

✅ Government
✅ Military
❌ YOU

That’s not just hypocrisy – that’s Orwellian surveillance.

Let’s save privacy in Europe. ✊

@Tutanota implementing a backdoor to disable encryption is the worst thing you can do.

If there is a weakness build in, even if the reason for that is a real good one bad actors will get access to that weakness and use it.

if this weakness is enforced on all devices and apps this will be a huge issue for the security of all devices used.
This is like if every private conversation is forced to be done inside the Parliament with cameras recording it.

This should never happen.

@Tutanota One thing I'm wondering is: isn't this basically automatically illegal on its own if they backdoor stuff to people in countries that do not agree to their plan?

Like not just countries that implement something similar, but any who don't agree... So if I send someone in the EU an encrypted message, by backdooring it, they have violated my rights since I'm not in the EU -- even if the US implements its own backdoors.

@Tutanota What happened to the EU who implemented all of those privacy policies?? That even some of them affected companies here in the US?? What other countries are exmpt from this? I heard Switzerland and Austria but I am not sure.

Is not a coincidence that they are implementing all of this after the online safety act around europe to silence its users and for surveillance.

@Tutanota

This is so insane and completely out of the question on so many levels, the mere fact that one can push for this without immediately losing one's political credibility and influence and becoming a laughing-stock (and subject to parliamentary investigation) is still shocking to me, after all those years of fighting this.

@Tutanota It is definitely Orwellian. Question: Are high school students still reading Orwell? Are people using the word "Orwellian" without reading 1984? I mean, we all know the basic premise of the book, but it also helps to read (or reread) the whole book to get a broader sense of what Orwell predicted and how close we are to that world.
