As I've said before, it's hard not to read this mass surveillance/censorship bullshit as our deeply reactionary governments getting the faintest whiff that an unchecked internet severely interferes with their ability to propagandize and decided the internet had to die.
The UK and US in particular are absolutely speed-running this bullshit (with the EU, Australia, and South America not too far behind).

Regarding Chat Control, the European Parliament's proposal from 2023 is reasonable. Instead of violating privacy and exposing people, including minors, to security risks, the proposal is about:
Automatic crawling of online content;
Obligation for service providers to remove illegal content, including CSAM;
More powers for law enforcement agencies to report illegal materials to providers.
Security by design should remain top priority as victims of abuse need secure and private means of communications to talk, seek help and advice.
Breaking encryption or mass scanning of private communications is not the solution.
