It's also worth pointing out that the politicians voting on this are also exempting themselves from being monitored. Their chats, emails, photos etc.. will remain private and will not be scanned. Literally not holding themselves to the same level of accountability. This could get very dirty.

Makes you wonder what they need to hide?

Considering the largest paedophile rings that we hear about (eventually) all seem to have connections to politics and power, I would say that they have a lot to hide. Not even accounting for the one currently ongoing in the US.

Just like covid vaccines manufacturers were exempt from liability in US.

They act like they own people.

You cultists are soooo weird

That's the federal law, honey

[–] dickalan@lemmy.world 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yes, but trying to turn the conversation into whatever weird conspiracy you are fomenting is fucking weird

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 1 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Please do tell the class what conspiracy you are talking about?

So everyone can align

I’m not going to bring myself down any further by engaging with base idiocy. Laaaaaaaterz. Fucking unhelpful ass walrus

[–] sunzu2@thebrainbin.org 1 points 4 months ago

So you made some shit on your head and when it didn't pan out you have a melt down?

🤡

And those who really have something to hide will just use closed platforms, maybe on darknet.

This chatcontrol is a complete waste of time and resources and won't achieve any goal, except putting all law-abiding citizens under undue surveillance. What about basic human rights?
