       Today is the day  Mr. Hummelgaard wanted to push through a vote on Chat Control in the EU Council. But he failed! 🎉 However, Chat Control will be back, so let's look at what this law means for everyone, not just here in Europe:#ChatControl is nothing but a Trojan Horse for citizens and businesses in Europe. Why?🧵 (1/7)

       Once built, such a system isn't just able to scan for harmful content, it could very well be used or abused to look for anything interesting:🔓 Your credit card details🔓 Your sexual orientation🔓 Your businesses' customer lists🧵 (2/7)

       In Europe everyone is talking about #DigitalSovereignty - which is great! But we can't have that and undermine our sovereignty by giving law enforcement the key to all encrypted communication. To us at Tuta it's clear:"There are no backdoors for the good guys only".🧵 (3/7)

       AI technology designed to detect illegal material cannot distinguish between "good" and "bad" speech. It opens the door for governments, now or in the future, to monitor all messages, photos, and videos. Once the infrastructure for scanning is in place, it can and will be used for other means as well.🧵 (4/7)

       Ask yourself this: Would you install a camera in your bathroom so the government can "make sure nothing bad happens"? Interestingly, EU governments themselves don't want the AI to scrape their data.Check whose data the AI will be able to scan:❌ Government❌ Military✅ YOU🧵 (5/7)

       If we allow this Trojan Horse through the gates, we’ll lose the very principle of private communication. We must say no to Chat Control! Not because we don’t care about safety, but because mass surveillance destroys safety for everyone.🧵 (6/7)

       @Tutanota And you know what's worst about all this, after delving even deeper into the subject? That it would de facto be the end of *all* privacy 🚫🔐 Because, in reality, this law assumes the scanning of everything sent from our device, not just messages, as is usually said. That's the worst part. That this law normally seems bad because it will scan our messages. But the truth is, this law is the devil because it will scan everything :demon:#ChatControl #FightChatControl #StopChatControl

       @Tutanota Here's another classic comic, sadly hard to repurpose for the EU, but the idea is the same.

       @Tutanota hey Tuta. I appreciate the work you’re doing fighting for our privacy on social media. In return I’ll fight to adopt your email services within our company. Let’s see where this takes us 😆

       @Tutanota When you see »could« here, think »will«.It will be abused, massively.  More than it could ever be used for its officially stated goal.

       @TutanotaYou wouldn't just be handing the key to law enforcement. The system would likely be outsourced to a private company that may not be based in the EU.There's also the system itself. Cast your minds back to the Post Office fiasco in the UK, where innocent people were jailed for fraud because the system had flaws.

       @Tutanota It is not even able to scan for harmful content.It is impossible to differentiate between legitimate nudes or abusive ones.As well as it is impossible to differentiate grooming vs flirting simply by the chat content.#chatcontrol is a huge scam!!Only practical use-case is mass surveillance and information control.

       @Tutanota I understand why governments want to exclude their data. But politicians have friends, families, business partners, they use "anonymous" accounts that won't be covered by this exemption, they retire at some point. There are many ways in which their sensitive information might be leaked just like anyone's else.
