A Win for Encryption: France Rejects Backdoor Mandate
2 years ago by schnurrito to c/privacy
Different pieces of legislation. This was about the French legislature voting against a national anti-encryption bill. Chat control is an EU-level bill and the French legislature isn't really involved in that, only the French government and France's EU representatives.
Yes know that it is different instances. But encryption becomes more and more an hot topic. And the split between EU, government, Law enforcement authorities and the military is concerning.
We vote on the "big" parties of our country's and the same party that says no to backdoors I'm the government can say yes in EU and vice versa.
So what I really want to say is if we can't agree on what we want's it's going to result in bad and weird laws. We can't say yes and no at the same time.
I hope you get what I mean..

So they havet changed their mind about chat control? You can't say yes and no at the same time.
