Another month, another attempt: Even though Hungary had to cancel the latest EU Council’s vote on the Child Sexual Abuse (CSA) Regulation in June 2024 because there was no majority among member states, it tried again this Wednesday - without success. The tipping point was that the Dutch secret service clearly issued their opinion on the enormous threat to everybody’s security should end-to-end encryption be weakened. Encryption is paramount for the digital resilience in Europe.
Apparently Dutch secret service can be bothered to do their fucking job on a case-to-case basis instead of compromising everyone to make some trash feel powerful.
Sorry for the orban. We hate him, but just like trump, he has a lot of lowlife commie nostalgistic idiot votes, and he turned hungary into autocracy. Even if he looses the election, all things in hungary are in the private hands of his comrades…
A secret service that protects its own people instead of taking every opportunity to spy on them. remarkable.
Unfortunately, I kinda doubt their motives. 😅
Your cattle is not your friend’s cattle. They don’t want their population under surveillance from potentially hostile parties. Regardless of how they treat their own surveillance.
Secret services are not wizards in business of giving out cookies and gifts, but when they are at least functional, they should act in this exact way.
Unlike some other secret services sharing their means of surveillance with Israel, the Commonwealth, possibly Turkey, possibly Arab monarchies and who not. Such a small thing between friends, right.

Not to mention that Chinese intelligence was just revealed to use exactly this kind of government backdoor to spy on people
A backdoor is a backdoor. No amount of spin will change that fact. Backdoors, especially known ones, are an open invitation to get hacked.
Client-side scanning - if required by law - would ask tech companies to scan communications for illegal content on the client before the encryption takes place and send suspicious content to the authorities. The Hungarian Presidency claims that this can coexist with end-to-end encryption, but this is fundamentally untrue.
JFC.
I mean, it’s true. It can. Just defeats the purpose.
Downvoted for speaking the (technical) truth
The last sentence should have been enough for the person who pressed that button
Proud of our secret service
Who knew they did more than release an annual puzzle?
