We are alarmed by reports that Germany is on the verge of a catastrophic about-face, reversing its longstanding and principled opposition to the EU’s Chat Control proposal which, if passed, could spell the end of the right to privacy in Europe. https://signal.org/blog/pdfs/germany-chat-control.pdf

Here a good video explanation of the Max Plank Institute on how the technology of Chat Control works and what this would mean for digital communication within Europe.
@signalapp ●. Most of this is already happening, nothing new at all.
●. They just making threats and throwing it in the open because they know there's Opposition who figured it. That's just a tactic.
●. Panicsl*ts of the Gest*po can go home, it's over
✔️. The whole world does nothing but scare you and when they about to Lose they scare some extra. Nothing the matter, just don't get scared

@signalapp Hier ein Interview als Kurzeinführung für Menschen, die neu in der Debatte sind – also auch gut zum Weiterleiten an die, die es dringend verstehen sollten: https://www.weizenbaum-institut.de/news/detail/chatkontrolle-gewissensbisse-in-der-informatik/
you really thought that the corporate world would allow themselves not to profit from all that data being generated every second across the internet?
that they would just encrypt everything and it would just say "blah blah blah bla blah whut......" when they login and pull the database?
when you all were screaming "less regulation....!" you were just saying "look the other way because you want a job......"
Please don't disconnect us in that case but practice civil resistance by keeping a secure option running even if you need to defy an unjust "law" for it.
We stand with @signalapp and all who defend digital rights. Germany’s 🇩🇪 leadership on privacy has been crucial now is not the time to waver. The right to private communication isn’t negotiable.

@signalapp time for Signal to look into a p2p, decentralised system
@signalapp maybe push this on signal to all (European) users would be more efficent.
If anyone attends FediDay Berlin physically:
The BSI will be there too, so please speak up!

@signalapp On the day #chatcontrol is agreed within the #EU, please shut down Signal in Europe. Don't compromise.
@signalapp Sadly, liberal Germans have been forced to watch the Bavarian far-right party CSU's political plans get blocked by the German Federal Constitutional Court and the European Court of Justice for decades. This was already the case with data retention for telecommunications and the monitoring of IT devices via Trojan horses.
The Minister of Justice is against chat monitoring, but is unable to push her views through. The Chancellor is in favour of it.
@signalapp We must absolutely put pressure on the government to prevent this from happening.
@signalapp "We urge Germany to be wise and to stand firm in its principles. We cannot let history repeat itself, this time with bigger databases and much much more sensitive data." This is vital since the actual damages and bodily harm caused by invasive surveillance have yet to be fully understood. CBTA supports Signal in its endeavors to uphold private communications accessible. #privacy #surveillance #Germany #biometrics
