đ„Hot Newsđ„The president of Signal instant messaging app has slammed a revised proposal from the European Union! What is this proposal? It is the Chat Control Law first proposed by the European Commission in mid-2022, which attempts to force instant messaging apps to create backdoors for end-to-end encrypted messages through some rules. đ±
While the EU Parliament committee voted against large-scale screening of encrypted telecommunications last November, the revised draft law is seeking an alternative to large-scale scanning - "upload moderation" to combat child sexual abuse content online.
However, Signal President Meredith Whittaker believed in a statement on June 17 that "upload moderation" is just another strategy to "undermine encryption", which will make it easier for hackers and hostile countries to exploit private chats. đ
For the Bitcoin and blockchain industry, this is undoubtedly big news worth paying attention to! We will continue to pay attention to the progress of this matter. đ
