Squizzy@lemmy.world 1 week agoThe implementation of digital IDs is where there is scope for abuse. Of course they can be done well, I would be delighted for a sovereign zero knowledge system to be implemented. Estonia has had a good system for a long time.
Chat control weakens encryption which is an issue for VPNs who have e2e encryption.

It’s like saying that implementing police force is problematic because there is scope for abuse. Do you have any proof that any of EU countries that implemented digital ID over the past decades is using it for surveillance? If not you’re just spreading conspiracy theories.
It doesn’t. You don’t know what is in this legislation and you’re spreading conspiracy theories.
This says it’s privacy preserving and open source. Do you have any proof that this will be used to track/surveil people? Or is is just another conspiracy theory?
Finally, look at all things like privacy index, press freedom index, freedom of speech index, data on independent courts and so on. Do you see any proof that EU is slipping on those issues? Not right wing countries like Hungary, EU as a whole. Can you find any proof at all that EU is abandoning it’s principles and drifting in the direction of surveillance state? Or is it all just because of some rumors, misinformation and false claims?

You didnt answer anything or refute anything, you just say that its ridiculous and not to be worried about the rightward leap. Chat control is an issue. Leaders are making public remarks re VPNs and private industry is trying to involve itself with the ID space as it grows as a necessity.
