Wait a second. Chat control? What is that and why should we as autonomists and anti-authoritarians be interested in it at all? Chat control is officially the EU regulation for the prevention and fight against sexual abuse of children, a current project of the European Union, which is postponed for now, but could possibly be decided soon.

Law enforcement already had quite some success cracking down on things like Silk Road, Encrochat and others. I suppose they don't just use Google, they better have custom crawlers and police officers actively browsing the dark web.
