This is the first good writeup I've seen of the difference between chat control 1.0 and 2.0. unfortunately the article gets cut off by a paywall. Anyone have a full transcript or unpaywalled version?

Too good to be true unfortunately, at least for this site. It doesn't work, options num 1-3 direct to the archive site that is out of reach and option 4 shows only text with paywall anyway. They have some kind of browser extension, maybe I will test it later, but be aware of its low rating.

Oh damn. It's worked fine for me before but I've only used it a couple of times. Good to know its not always reliable

Im happy though that there is underground movement against keeping people from reading news, so I will test this site more with different greedy news providers

For sure. There might be other more reliable sites or ways to bypass paywalls too. I've used that site because someone else linked it in a comment here on Lemmy

Even if Chat Control 1.0 is less bad than CC 2.0, it is still bad. We all know people who barely know how to install an app from the Play Store. Don't these people deserve privacy too? They will totally be scanned.

Privacy really shouldn't be a privilege only for individuals, who know how to bypass this stuff.
