Oh man, if the EU actually rolled out this horribd idea called ChatControl that actually threatens the security and privacy of secure e2e encrypted messaging like Signalā¢, fuck me, Iām out š¤¦āāļø Iāll just rage quit the IT industry and become a luddite. Iām out.
@prologic@twtxt.net They have not rolled it out (yet), they are ājustā discussing it (for the n-th time).
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Kill it with fire š„
@movq@www.uninformativ.de LOL. I wish and hope they keep proposing it until the proposers die of natural causes, and then it vanishes. Hopeful thinking, I knowā¦
@bender@twtxt.net hopeful of the same š¤
@prologic@twtxt.net Germany was listed as āopposingā on https://fightchatcontrol.eu/ for a while, now itās back to āundecidedā. According to netzpolitik.org, itās still debated. Also according to that page, there could be an important vote on the EU level on October 13/14.
The green party and the (far) left are opposing this (at least in Germany). Sadly, Germany is leaning more right with every year ā¦ As for young people: The (far) left is the strongest party among young people, with the (far) right being the second strongest one. (https://www.tagesschau.de/wahl/archiv/2025-02-23-BT-DE/umfrage-alter.shtml) Is there cause for hope? I donāt know.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de See hereās the thingā¦ I just donāt fucking gt this whole āleftā vs. ārightā shitā¢ anymore. None of it makes any sense whatsoever. When my wife tries to explain it to me itās completely the opposite to what you just said just now š± ā So from here on, Iām just going to keep things simpleā nuttersā and ānormalā š¤£
I hope no-one here is a ānutterā š¤£
@prologic@twtxt.net how dare you! (read it with Greta emphasis, and accent)
@bender@twtxt.net š¤£
@prologic@twtxt.net Hm, I donāt know. Over here, we have parties that we would call āleftā or ārightā, one of them even calls themselves āThe Leftā. No idea about your political landscape, but it still makes sense for us. š¤ For me, at least.
@movq@www.uninformativ.de Iām glad it make sense for you š I will never understand it. All I know is that Iām a conservative socialist and thereās a lot of āstupid shitāā¢ happening in the world (including my own country). I still blame extreme Capitalism.
