Why 'protecting kids' is a politician's cop-out for more chat surveillance
"In order to allegedly prevent child abuse, #privacy will be abolished — and, don’t forget, child abuse happens offline, but legislators find it easy to just criminalise the end of the line while washing their hands of reality and creating a tool to #censor and control.
The idea that the state — or even private corporations — could have access to the intimate details of our lives is antithetical to the principles of #democracy and #humanrights and a step toward a dystopian future. It’s a direct attack on the presumption of innocence, replacing it with a culture of suspicion and control.
The fundamental problem with these initiatives is that they present a false dichotomy: that we must choose between protecting our children and preserving our freedoms. This is a dangerous and misleading narrative.
...
Every time politicians propose measures to "protect our children," we must scrutinise their true motives and the potential consequences of their actions. In many cases, these proposals are not about safety at all, but about control — control over information, control over individuals, and #control over society."
