@EUHomeAffairs This babysitter, as well as over 100 suspects he was in touch with, was investigated and prosecuted WITHOUT the totalitarian #ChatControl #MassSurveillance scanning that @EUHomeAffairs propagates (but because of witness testimony). (Thread)

@echo_pbreyer In fact, Markus R. not only exchanged images and videos via chats and encrypted messenger services over many years, but even participated in livestreams with other German offenders, directing them how to abuse children.

@EUHomeAffairs That fails to answer my question on which platforms were used. Where perpetrators use self-hosted platforms on the darknet, encrypted archives or decentralised P2P messenger services, these will certainly not implement detection requirements. Stop ignoring displacement effects.

@echo_pbreyer The offender was caught after 15 years of impunity and with a count of 13 victims. The youngest was 1 month old. With the new regulation in place, he could have been caught immediately.

@EUHomeAffairs This assumption is ridiculous. Stop ignoring obvious displacement effects. This offender was cunning. He used platforms where he could feel safe. If the proposed regulation comes into effect, these people will simply move to other platforms and services.

@EUHomeAffairs There is no indication this cunning IT specialist ever circulated material via platforms the EU COM wants to use indiscriminate #ChatControl on. Europol says offenders typically use self-encrypted archives, content of which CANNOT be detected by any hashing or AI.
