@elricofmelnibone @EUCommission I believe the original post is entirely intended to show how WhatsApp cannot just be considered a private messaging app anymore
(this is your reminder to buy and use Threema)
@danielswann Threema? why to pay for yet another centralized silo that can enshittify like whatsapp at any time?
better to use something that makes you trully autonomus and independent, like Delta Chat

We have designated WhatsApp as a Very Large Online Platform under the Digital Services Act.
As WhatsApp Channels reaches 45 million EU users, it must now meet higher safety and transparency standards, including risk assessment and content moderation.
These rules focus on keeping public broadcasts safe for all, while ensuring your private messages stay private.
For a digital Europe where safety and privacy coexist.

> For a digital Europe where safety and privacy coexist.That's a funny paragraph to read from the people who can't leave Chat Control alone and keep trying to get it to pass every year.

@EUCommission Well, good luck with that!

@EUCommission My single user fediverse instance is very well moderated... by its single user: me
My "Very Small Online Platform" (population: me) is on the same boat, hopefully. (If the next elections in my country don't actually wipe the right to privacy, that is, I'm being unfortunately serious) -

@EUCommission and why not trying to promote an European chat app, based in Matrix, decentralised and private? For europeans and the rest of the free world. Without an enterprise behind making money with our data or maybe yes, but at least European enterprise.

@apnoe_soeren @EUCommission @signalapp @threemaapp
why replace one shitty centralized US app that doesn't respect privacy with another?
It's either decentralized with E2E and without identity verification, or it's garbage.@ki @apnoe_soeren @EUCommission @signalapp @threemaapp since when is threema a US thing? It's swiss. And yes it's not fully decentralized but it's better than many decentralized systems I've seen.

@muzicofiel @EUCommission If the EU built a chat app it would be the equivalent of WeChat, i.e. heavy surveillance and used for governmental functions and commerce.
What is Signal's plan if the EU decides to demand access? Ideally that would be "don't have nexus in Europe, and tell them if you don't like us block us." But that would put the Signal admins in jeopardy if they ever left their home countries.
