    I have a question, if I, an american, have an account with tuta mail, and this bs passes and is actually enforced, tuta would not be required to install the state spyware on my device as I’m not an EU citizen nor someone who resides in the EU, correct?

      Probably depends how the companies responsible for opening backdoors in their apps and services would handle it. Would they use the same backdoors that they give access to authorities in other countries or will they create a super specific backdoor just for EU.

      Why not if American companies have to follow American law internationally even if it goes against local law, why doesn’t the other way apply.
