Such a rule is basically un-enforceable. Because it is nearly never exactly the same text. So it is always the first time voted on.

What they could do is create a law that protects the integrity of E2EE. At least in this case.

But I guess that will never happen... Well, a girl can dream.

It was protected by the ECHR in a recent ruling. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2024/03/european-court-human-rights-confirms-undermining-encryption-violates-fundamental

However, Chat Control 2.0 argues that since the spying is done before the content is encrypted, it's somehow ok. 🙄

It seems ECHR is best court. They fuck Putin, they fuck mass surveilance.

Or law that forbids any mass surveilance. By any entity.
