📣 EU's "Chat Control 2" proposal, aiming to mass surveil user messages for child abuse content, has been dropped due to lack of support. The legislation, criticized for undermining citizen rights, would have scanned images, videos, and URLs using AI. Matthew Nimerg, co-founder of Aleph Zero, warns that such measures could lead to more invasive regulations, affecting law-abiding citizens more than criminals. While the legislation may return in another form, privacy advocates hope for a more balanced approach. Remember folks, Big Brother may be watching, but we're watching back! 💪👀
