Europe is finally losing ground

ProtectEU has not been voted on in the European Parliament.

Stop spreading misinformation!

Just because they haven't voted now doesn't mean they won't vote later.
And in general, it is not known whether voting will be necessary for the implementation of this system :anyway:
 
I wasn't, at the beginning. :D
Hey V, i saw you received a review copy of taktikhits PayPerCall course. His sales page got taken down but wanted to see if you had any feedback on the method? Thanks for any response you can give.

I am sorry, mate. I don't think I should comment on something that got taken by the mods. :)
 
After doing a deep research, thanks GPT o4-mini, and getting like 34 Resources, that are all political - so nothing for BHW, i asked for a summary - or lets say, fact check of OP's Post:

1 means: Not true at all , 5: true
  • ProtectEU is not just another law
    • Score: 5 – It’s an internal security strategy (policy framework), not an enacted regulation or directive.
  • It “opens the door to total control”
    • Score: 2 – It mandates studies on “lawful access” and encryption roadmaps, but does not itself impose mass surveillance powers.
  • The Commission is officially promoting backdoors in end-to-end encryption
    • Score: 2 – ProtectEU calls for exploring technical options for lawful access, but no backdoor requirement has been passed.
  • None of your messages, files or personal data will be safe on European services anymore
    • Score: 1 – Existing EU law still protects end-to-end encryption and data confidentiality; no security guarantees have been revoked.
  • No EU-registered company can guarantee your real privacy
    • Score: 1 – Under GDPR, the e-Privacy Directive and Charter rights, services can and do offer genuine encryption-based privacy.
  • Any of your activity can be intercepted, decrypted and used against you
    • Score: 1 – Providers must comply with lawful intercept under warrant, but cannot decrypt content they do not hold keys for (true E2EE remains inaccessible).
  • EU hosting providers must integrate hidden access mechanisms
    • Score: 1 – There is no current law forcing secret access channels; ProtectEU only proposes impact assessments and roadmaps.
  • Domain registrars may be forced to transfer client data without your knowledge
    • Score: 2 – Registrars already comply with lawful data-request processes, but no hidden-transfer obligations beyond established legal procedures exist.
  • Data storage services will be forced to keep public keys for third parties
    • Score: 1 – No key-escrow or third-party key-retention requirement is in force; only future studies are called for.
  • “Your private correspondence is no longer private,” “your anonymous project is no longer anonymous,” “your business projects are at risk”
    • Score: 2 – If backdoors were ever mandated, confidentiality would be eroded, but under current and proposed law, privacy and anonymity protections remain intact.
Total verdict: Not true
Based on a review of 34 authoritative resources (EU strategy documents, legal texts, court rulings, expert analyses), the post’s alarmist assertions are largely unfounded or speculative.

I'm sure that at the time, nobody believed in the Great Chinese Firewall either.

Privacy really feels like it’s getting chipped away bit by bit, and rules like this could make it even harder to trust EU-based services going forward.
A digital ID is very dangerous because you need it for KYC.Its a database it keep logs when that ID is used so the government will know where you went.
 
It really feels like privacy is slowly being taken away bit by bit. Curious to see how companies and users will adapt to this in the long run.
