I’m going to come back to the 2026 thread titled “US and EU pass laws mandating on-device scanning” and watch everyone who was warned about the consequences of having governments demand features in tech products pretend they didn’t know. All the people who said “sLiPpErY SlOpE FaLLaCy” will be fun to talk to

The EU is already doing this with their government mandated Certificate Authority. The EU has precedent that it can demand any hardware or software changes for any products sold in Europe no matter how insignificant.
