What do you recommend to use while taking into account chat control? I was thinking about self-hosting XMPP. I’d love to hear your advice

    Not an expert on the topic, but I guess this will come down to companies providing the services (meta, signal, telegram…) to embed the scanning.

    If they don’t force google/apple to implement it somehow for all outgoing messages (traffic?)

    Google removing sideloading conveniently plays into this…

      The route I see is the following:

      Right now they force messaging apps to scan all you do before it gets encrypted. Any not compliant app would be banned on the EU.

      Google will ban sideloading apps, so getting any not compliant app would be imposible.

      Probably phones without a locked bootloader would also be ban. To ensure you don’t load any other OS that would allow you to circumvent the ban.

      It will be really hard to scape from it. At some point the easiest option is to take down the politicians. And to my EUROPOL agent I’m talking about a political democratic take down.
