@vestager Thank you. That is genuinely appreciated.
However, #chatcontrol is very much on my mind these days. And the declaration states:
"Everyone has the right to freedom of expression in the online environment, without fear of
being censored or intimidated."
How do I NOT feel intimidated, if every single message that I write could trigger the surveillance algorithm, just because it finds my words suspicious? Computers are still stupid and false positives are likely. #nonsense-tech
