EU Tries to Kill End-To-End Encryption

Today, we’re geting into the EU’s controversial measures threatening end-to-end encryption (E2EE) under the guise of combating CSAM. Meredith Whittaker from the Signal Foundation warns that these measures could dismantle encryption and erode our privacy. The EU’s client-side scanning proposal scans messages before they’re encrypted, undermining E2EE and potentially opening the door for abuse. Historically, sacrificing privacy for security has seldom enhanced safety. Examples include the NSA’s PRISM program and the UK’s Investigatory Powers Act, which expanded government control without significantly boosting security. To protect your digital privacy, use messaging apps that prioritize E2EE, like Signal, Wire, Threema, and Session. Always use your own encryption and understand the technologies you’re using. Operational security practices, like compartmentalizing communications, using pseudonyms, and regularly updating software, can help safeguard your data. Stay informed through resources like the Electronic Frontier Foundation. This push to undermine encryption is about control, not protection. By understanding history, we can better guard against future threats. Stay safe, stay informed, and take steps to protect your digital privacy.
