In 2022, European lawmakers proposed new rules with the noble intent to protect
children. However, this law allows authorities to have anyone's legitimate
conversations monitored.

In doing so, it harms everyone, including those it wants to protect. No one can
be protected by making the internet less secure.


YOUNG PEOPLE SAY NO TO ONLINE SURVEILLANCE

80%


New evidence shows that 80% of young people aged 13 to 17 years old from 13 EU
Member States would not feel comfortable being politically active or exploring
their sexuality if authorities were able to monitor their digital communication,
in order to look for sexual abuse.

Breaking #encryption puts everyone in danger! Intrusive surveillance deprives
survivors of safe space & discourages from seeking help. Instead, we need
structural approaches to tackling the root of horrific crimes like CSA.

WHY SHOULD I CARE?

Your private chats will be scanned. You won't able to share anything remotely
intimate without the risk of your messages, photos and videos ending up in the
hands of some governmental institution.

The technology is known to fail. And as a result, you may be accused of being a
(child) sexual offender without having done anything wrong.

We can't afford to get it wrong. We all agree: child sexual abuse is a
horrendous act. As a society, we shouldn't waste our effort to tackle this issue
on actions that are proven to be ineffective and harmful.
