<h1>About chatcontrol.dk</h1>
<p>
We are a group of privacy activists who have met each other at
<a href="https://bornhack.dk/bornhack-2022/">Bornhack 2022</a>.
We are very concerned about the plan to scan (almost) all personal messages in the EU,
because we, as IT-competent citizens understand that:
</p>
<ul>
<li>
Digital communication is often confidential information, just like offline communication.
To violate online communication with surveillance is
as serious as eavesdropping on offline communication.
</li>
<li>
The automatic classification systems that are supposed to be used to scan
the messages are not reliable.
False positive results are likely regardless of what
marketing-people say.
Human communication is very complex and
there exists no system that has passed
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turing_test">the Turing Test</a>.
</li>
<li>
The scanning will affect everyone, but the criminals can still avoid being detected.
They will just encrypt their messages and files outside of chat programs.
</li>
<li>
The chatcontrol might be expanded to scan for other things and
report them to the authorities.
Do you get financial support and write about buying something expensive?
That is suspicious and needs to be reported!
</li>
<li>
Many non-technical people do not understand what the chatcontrol is.
We hope that we can explain it here and stop this very violating and dangerous law.
