It's worrying that they don't specify in which cases they require identity checks.

This will hurt for a lot of startup AI wrappers around these productivity tools.

New comment by dinoqqq in "Germany must stand firmly against client-side scanning in Chat Control [pdf]"

Politicians to reach out to in Germany, with a template email:

poststelle@bmi.bund.de, poststelle@bmjv.bund.de, info@bmds.bund.de, baerbel.bas@bundestag.de, lars.klingbeil@bundestag.de, friedrich.merz@bundestag.de, landesleitung@csu-bayern.de, fraktion@cducsu.de, matthias.miersch@bundestag.de, sebastian.fiedler@bundestag.de, alexander.throm@bundestag.de, johannes.schaetzl@bundestag.de, ralph.brinkhaus@bundestag.de

Sehr geehrte Damen und Herren,

ich wende mich heute an Sie, um meine große Sorge über die geplante Einführung der sogenannten „Chatkontrolle“ auszudrücken.

Die flächendeckende Überwachung privater Kommunikation stellt einen massiven Eingriff in unsere Grundrechte dar. Sie gefährdet die Privatsphäre aller Bürgerinnen und Bürger und untergräbt zentrale Prinzipien eines demokratischen Rechtsstaates. Der Schutz der Vertraulichkeit von Kommunikation ist ein unverzichtbarer Bestandteil unserer freiheitlichen Gesellschaft.

Zudem zeigen zahlreiche Expertinnen und Experten auf, dass das flächendeckende Scannen privater Nachrichten zur Bekämpfung von Kindesmissbrauchsdarstellungen nicht wirksam ist. Stattdessen schwächt eine solche Maßnahme die Sicherheit digitaler Kommunikation insgesamt und schafft gefährliche Überwachungsinfrastrukturen, die leicht missbraucht werden können.

Ich bitte Sie daher eindringlich, sich bei der entsprechenden Abstimmung klar gegen die Einführung der Chatkontrolle auszusprechen und sich für den Schutz der Bürgerrechte und der Privatsphäre einzusetzen.

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

I don't see that this is solving the problem. If there is a new law, it still needs to be enforced, so companies still need to have the same checks on identity to make sure they are compliant.

I agree that it should be the responsibility of parents, but if you leave good and bad parenting to the parents only I think we would live in a different world.

If this was the case then Russia would also admit they did it. It's weird to not hide your IP, but still deny the hack on political level.

I'm not so sure. Look at the bargaining power in geopolitics a country gets, when they know a certain country hacked them (Dem. hacks, Clinton email hacks, by Russia). It is always better to hide your tracks or to blaim someone else. Especially if it can be done easily.

It also raised my suspicion.

What I generally don't get, is that in so many hacks they state "this came from a Russina|Chinese|Iranian IP address", hinting that it came from that country probably.

Can someone in the security industry maybe elaborate if this makes sense or not?

You probably missed SAP then.

> The company is the largest non-American software company by revenue and the world's third-largest publicly traded software company by revenue. As of December 2023, SAP is the largest German company by market capitalization.
