Yeah, I'm very curious to see how it is implemented and enforced if/when it passes.
#Signal said they'd pull out of anywhere that passes a law like this. But even with just this one example where a single company is doing the #development and running the centralized server, it's unclear what that would look like.
Sure, tell Apple & Google to disallow IP addresses in #EU from downloading the app.
Will Signal also feel compelled to block IPs from the EU from accessing their servers? Will they be required to block all VPN users, worldwide as well since there's some possibility the end user might be in the EU?
Will #Microsoft #GitHub ban people in the EU from seeing the source code or downloading releases of every app that has #e2ee and no content scanning code?
What does this mean for #Nostr #software, which has e2ee DMs? For relays inside or outside the EU?
And to be clear, I'm asking how it would work for people who want to attempt to comply with the #law. The answers are easy for those people taking the civil disobedience route.
I am also not asking whether people should comply with the law. We all have our own opinions on that and that's fine. I simply want to understand who would be legally required to make what changes.
