To quote the article’s introduction:

The End of the Privacy of Digital Correspondence

The EU Commission proposes to oblige providers to search all private chats, messages, and emails automatically for suspicious content – generally and indiscriminately. The stated aim: To prosecute child sexual exploitation material (CSEM). The result: Mass surveillance by means of fully automated real-time surveillance of messaging and chats and the end of privacy of digital correspondence.

Other aspects of the proposal include ineffective network blocking, screening of personal cloud storage including private photos, mandatory age verification resulting in the end of anonymous communication, appstore censorship and excluding minors from the digital world.

    How is it that such proposals can just be admited again and again?

    They should really just have it be banned on a judical level so legislature cannot be proposed. … unless they ignore that too.

      It is still the same proposal. :)

      They already got the judical advice(?) stating this authoritarian bullshit goes against any and every constitution and human rights yet they still try to force this. So, yes, they do ignore that aswell as any common sense.
