Comment on Did the EU just propose to add back doors to encryption mechanisms?
Pirata@lemm.ee 1 week agoSignal said it would leave the EU if they were forced to break encryption, though. All other local alternatives (like Threema) would also comply.

Mind you that Signal is based in the US.

It’s also open-source and privacy-focused, so I’m not sure to what extent it makes a difference. If signal were to go astray it can always be forked.
In fact, I already use Molly because it is even more security and privacy focused.

Self hosting an encrypted app (e.g. XMPP) on a VPS outside jurisdiction, in a country that just doesn’t comply.
Also add a VPN to all devices to make discovery of such things that much more difficult.

They said they would leave the EU. They didn’t say people couldn’t use their service via a VPN (which is the solution they suggested).
