That’s exactly my point. This doesn’t solve any other problem except make EU citizens pay the government for the right to purchase goods without solving any of the underlying problems. It doesn’t stop sweatshops from existing or make those products any safer etc.

Not your privacy keys, not your security.
You need to encrypt your data before sending it through any app and have an easy method to share private keys with your contacts, preferably anonymously without association of phone numbers etc.
Relying on any centralized app network will always expose you to their security backdoors. We need on device cryptography that encrypts data before it goes to WhatsApp or Signals servers.
Even if they allow a govt agency to read encrypted streams, it will be a garbled mess.


Just another brick in the road to fascism. No privacy make it harder to organize and protest.

Get a new barber and fire the old one.


For fucks sake, get a haircut!
