- EU pushing expanded Chat Control 2.0 through a deceptive backdoor, more intrusive than the rejected original plan.
- New proposal includes mandatory scanning loophole under 'risk mitigation,' threatening end-to-end encryption.
- AI-powered mass surveillance of private text chats and metadata, risking false positives and privacy breaches.
- Proposal includes ending anonymous communication online and imposing a blanket ban on teens under 16 from chat apps.
- Urgent call for EU governments to veto the proposal and demand corrections to protect fundamental rights.
