        Because you and me, we’ve got stuff to do to make a living and can’t care about all the things all the time. The people that push this legislation, they don’t have anything else to do and they have time, money and patience.

    Thanks to Patrick Breyer for reporting on this and techradar for picking it up. I wish the Pirate Party get more people into the parliament next election, so they can influence against such surveillance legislation.

    Lets hope that the representatives of the countries have some common sense and vote against this. Or that they at least remember that Signal and Whatsapp said that they will be forced to leave the European market and that their voters will surely remember who was responsible for that.

    Looking forward to Chinese and Russia hackers getting access to the scanning system and then downloading all the images and communications.

    In 2035 all European politicians will be in the pockets of foreign powers who can blackmail them with nudes, unfavourable party pictures and edgy messages they have sent as teenagers and young adults.

      Italian and French politicans are confused by that statement.
