    There really should be a law where the EU gets fined everytime they waste time bringing up the same proposal that has already been shut down multiple times.

    I almost forgot the monthly “let’s make encryption illegal” from the EU.

      let’s make encryption illegal*

      *for the peasantry, of course.

      They really love the idea of giving the political class an exception.

      It’s sad and against our supposed values. Who proposed this this time? Was it the same MEP?

        This comes from the Commission, not Parliament.

    As long as there is opensource, good luck with that. Remember the export-restricted pgp?
