EU Parliament Backs Off Encryption Scanning | Europe News
Description
The EU Parliament just sent a controversial child abuse scanning bill back to member states—with a major twist: it now explicitly excludes end-to-end encrypted services. The vote was chaotic, with lawmakers confused about what they were voting on, and the final decision now rests with individual EU countries. If they can’t agree, it could trigger a rare and intense “conciliation” process. Tech companies remain in legal limbo, as the previous version of the law expired in April. Supporters say it’s a necessary step to protect kids, while critics argue it’s just delaying a proper, long-term solution.
