For now not mandatory, but if the second part of this initiative passes then this will be quite a problem indeed.
We must prepare.
Start creating RSA/cvEd25519 keys for E-Mail and promoting Matrix/XMPP.
True. Btw than key what you mean is GPG? Or is another thing? I’m interested

I was unaware of this, what? How can something like this pass with 78% of people being against? A very important step was taken with the GDPR, but now we are going to back away in an utter U-turn? I’m very disappointed and concerned about this… What can we do to somehow prevent the second phase (or even revert this)?
This seems to be the boiling frog technique :)
The the 78% against is of course a very leading question.
A proponent of the law would have probably asked: “do you think Whatsapp should be allowed to search their servers for child-porn and report it to the police if found?”, which would probably result in 78% approval.
But of course this story is a bit more complex with unintended or maybe intended but not openly stated consequences.
Yeah I see your point, it makes sense.
So this is totally boosting my “Convert everyone to XMPP” project …
It’s also boosting my “Convert everyone to Matrix” project aswell
I think that is really important to teach people about that. Cool objective
The encrypted-mail era is coming.
