    For now not mandatory, but if the second part of this initiative passes then this will be quite a problem indeed.

    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.
