How can this not turn out badly. Scan gazillion messages per second and identify and analyze each word to determine if it is inappropriate. Provide real time analysis with AI to identify grooming. Essentially get rid of encryption. Hack me baby. Hack me baby all night long.
>However, the child abuse regulation would create permanent rules that essentially mandate AI-based content scanning across the EU.
These types of Orwellian ideas ALWAYS start with “protecting the children” as their core selling point. That they can be used easily for other WAY less “protecting the children” things is the important part.
Very nice article. Descriptive and not sensational. Although I wonder:
> Critics of the EU’s plan therefore warn that the law will force E2EE messaging platforms to downgrade the flagship security protections they offer by implementing risky technologies such as client-side scanning as a compliance measure.
While I also think that this is a pretty large backdoor, I don’t see how it’s particularly “risky”. Risky for what? The client obviously has access to the plain text, since it handles encryption.
