> 300 scientists from all around the world have sent an open letter to the EU Parliament to call on policymakers to stop chat control, the EU’s proposed Child Sexual Abuse Regulation. They say while it is the responsibility of politicians to protect children from sexual abuse, "it is our professional recommendation as scientists that such a proposal be not taken forward" because the scanning techniques the EU is proposing to use are deeply flawed and would endanger the security of everyone using the internet.
> The scientists make the EU proposal look like wishful thinking: "Given the horrific nature of child sexual abuse, it is understandable, and indeed tempting, to hope that there is a technological intervention that can eradicate it. Yet, looking at the issue holistically, we cannot escape the conclusion that the current proposal is not such an intervention."
> There is no magic key that allows the police to scan all chat messages, emails, and more for harmful content while not risking the security and privacy of everyone. This is technically not possible.
This is all true, but the exact same is true for all the already existing laws that lets the state monitor your bank accounts, but i guess people buy the 'money laundering' but not the 'child porn' thing, weirdly.
