Attached: 1 image Germany's position has been reverted to UNDECIDED. Despite expressing concerns about breaking end-to-end encryption, Germany refrained from taking a definitive stance on the Chat Control proposal during the September 12th LEWP meeting. A willingness to negotiate and compromise remains. This is an unfortunate development as Germany is crucial to defeating Chat Control.

    This is way worse than people think.

    Imagine in 10 years time (for example) spying on us has become the norm.

    You’re wearing a smart watch, have medical complaints and the doctor suggests you walk 5 miles a day, or change your diet, or whatever.

    Unbeknownst to you, that information has been sold to insurance companies or anyone else and they have included it as a clause in your contract. You didn’t walk 5 miles one day, or didn’t change your diet sufficiently. Your claim is now void.

    Or if you are a diabetic and ate a doughnut (for example) and had a small blood sugar spike. It just so happens that the same day you are involved in a car crash. You will likely be accused of causing it, may lose your licence, never mind not being able to make a claim.
