Thank you for all the great replies and responses to this poll! It somehwat confirmed my belief that Signal is the goto for most for secure, end to end encrypted chat (which I have used on occasion). But I also learned about other options I had never known about before including many decentralized options. Check out the replies to my poll to see them. #Signal#Matrix#Element#WhatsApp#Telegram#Synapse#Wire#Threema#SecureChat#E2EE#Messaging
De EU-commissaris Ylva Johansson creëert een fabeltje dat het scannen van alle berichten direct op je apparaat (‘scannen aan clientzijde’) niet de eind-tot-eind versleuteling van berichten zou ondermijnen
Hé want je kant het toch altijd nog versleutelen nadat we alles hebben gescand, en evt. meldingen naar onze database hebben doorgestuurd? Niks aan de hand :blobcatgooglyshrug:
#Chatkontrolle so eben wurde der Bericht des Berichterstatters vom #IMCO Ausschuss angenommen. Zum Kontext, der von Saliba vorgelegt Draft Report war bereits eine gute Grundlage, viele Punkte waren hart umkämpft.
Der Bericht ist nicht perfekt und deckt nicht alle unsere Bedenken ab. ABER: Er enthält wichtige Punkte im Hinblick auf #E2EE#AgeVerification generell die Anwendung von Technologie in diesem Zusammenhang. Es bleibt spannend was der #LIBE Ausschuss nach dieser Vorlage tut.
Experts have explained that any compromise of end-to-end encryption to detect CSAM can add 'backdoors'.
This will expose users to hackers accessing personal information and messages. It'll put the very people who the government claims to be protecting at risk.
Suella Braverman (UK Home Secretary) refers to the Safety Tech Challenge Fund, funded by the government to look at tools for detecting CSAM on encrypted systems.
An evaluation of five of those projects shows the confidentiality of users' comms can't be guaranteed.
We urge the UK government to remove the powers in the Online Safety Bill that'll allow Ofcom to impose client-side scanning technology on private chat platforms.

Yesterday we sent an open letter to the UK government from 80 experts and civil society groups.
It isn't possible to scan messages in a way that only gets the 'bad guys'. Client-side scanning turns everyone's chats into dangerous spaces for privacy and security.
Welcome @apple! Affirming the longstanding expert consensus:
Encryption works for all or it’s broken for all. There’s no safe, private way to conduct mass surveillance. & no amount of magical thinking or specious claims will alter this stubborn reality.
🔴 Over 80 international civil society organisations, academics and cyber-experts warn the UK government that the Online Safety Bill threatens the security and privacy of billions of people who use apps like WhatsApp and Signal.
Encrypted messaging protects people’s security online. But powers to scan private messages in the Online Safety Bill will expose people to hacking and abuses of private information.
