Another month, another attempt: Even though Hungary had to cancel the latest EU Council’s vote on the Child Sexual Abuse (CSA) Regulation in June 2024 because there was no majority among member states, it tried again this Wednesday - without success. The tipping point was that the Dutch secret service clearly issued their opinion on the enormous threat to everybody’s security should end-to-end encryption be weakened. Encryption is paramount for the digital resilience in Europe.
Great victory, but just they’re just going to try yet again.
I mean, if it’s Hungary who pushes it, countries will be against it just on principle of Hungary proposing it.
Until they realize that it’d be good to be able to take a sneak peek. 😅
the vote has been postponed, but they’re still going to discuss the matter, so they’re not done trying this time yet https://digitalcourage.social/@echo_pbreyer/113278459681596596
