How do you have a "What is Chat Control?" Heading then NOT have a topic sentence/paragraph under it saying what it is.
I swear, I went to look and paste an explainer here, and came back empty handed (I'm not in Europe or planning to visit there, which is apparently the affected jurisdiction).
lol, you’re right.
Oh cool, good work:
"Chat Control" refers to a series of legislative proposals that would make it mandatory for all service providers (text messaging, email, social media, cloud storage, hosting services, etc.) to scan all communications and all files (including end-to-end encrypted ones), in order to supposedly detect whatever the government deems "abusive material."
