Not gonna lie the fighting pedophilia seems more of an excuse in order to read our messages!

Pedophiles would be terminally stupid if they used common, commercial chat systems and social media. Those who survive have probably their own forums completely disconnected from commercial prying eyes.

So in the end they would only catch a handful of very stupid amateurs while trampling on the rights to privacy and confidentiality of all citizens.

classic “protecting the children” to do something terrible excuse

Taking away privacy makes it easier for children to be abused.

Remember, the most likely abusers of children are not strangers off the Internet; they’re people who have authority over those children: parents, church leaders, teachers, coaches, police, etc.

Private online communication makes it easier for abused children to get help.

In other words, these laws are not “fighting pedophilia”. They are enabling child abuse.

It was never about fighting pedophilia lol, it’s about power.
