The ProtectEU initiative is not just another law, it is actually opening the door to total control. The European Commission is now officially promoting the idea of creating back doors in end-to-end encryption systems.
Simply put:
None of your messages, any of your files, or any of your personal data will be safe on European services anymore.
No company or service registered in the EU can guarantee your real privacy. Any of your activity can be intercepted, decrypted and used against you.
What does this mean in practice?
Any European hosting provider will be required to integrate hidden access mechanisms into its infrastructure.
Any domain registrar may be forced to transfer data about their clients without your knowledge.
Any data storage service will be forced to keep public keys that can be used by third parties.
Which means:
Your private correspondence is no longer private.
Your anonymous project is no longer anonymous.
Your business projects are at risk of information leaks.
