    End-to-end encryption should be a fundamental human right and there should be no age discrimination in Internet services. None of these should be controversial opinions and people fear mongering of empty fears should be ignored

      Well, it ain’t just the EU :/

      Our right to privacy is under attack basically globally (EU, USA, England, Australia, maybe more, but those I’m aware off).

      Being wrapped into bullshit reasons “to protect the children” or “to fight crime”, which won’t help, since malicious actors and creative kids will find work arounds for such measures.

      The truth is likely more to put a oppressive surveillance police state into place. Where opposition can more easily be tracked down and silenced.

      Now it’s more important then ever before to protect your rights to privacy. Since rights are easily eroded by politicians, but very hard to re-gain afterwards.

      E.g. look at Russia, where you accidentally slit your throat while shaving if you try to voice yourself against Putin.
