yeah, hard pass
Normalizing mass surveillance would set a precedent for authoritarian regimes worldwide to demand similar access, further eroding privacy and human rights on a global scale.
I also oppose it on technical grounds, since it would be some kind of local or hybrid ai that does the scanning. A high number of false positives harming innocents would certainly be the result.
Thus, no we don't.
So just blanket "no private communication for anyone"? I mean, why shouldn't people be able to communicate privately? There is no such thing as a "single owner of backdoors", so why try play that game when it never ends with just a single owner?
For instance, law enforcement agencies can receive legal authority to wiretap your phone if they can present reasonable suspicion of criminal activity that must be investigated.
If you want that, you have to also be OK with other parties being able to do so too, as there currently doesn't exists any solutions to that specific problem of just letting one party accessing something without the risk of leaks.
why you are assuming this is true?
first of all it's not true, law enforcement are already doing their work today without chat control.
In case we have massive chat control, do you really expect criminals to send plain text messages via whatsapp/telegram/ecc? They will use custom-made solutions(btw they are already using them ...) to circumvent the chat control.
Even if they will be forced to use whatsapp, they can easily add an extra layer of encryption that will totally circumvent the chat control ... and the only thing we will have are governants able to know every single aspect of our life ...
In fact the minder's minder could be the minder's charge and you get 100% employment.
