The European Union is renewing its push to be to scan the digital, message, photographic and video content of every phone, of every citizen, in the European Union. The ‘reason’ givien for doing so is that the European Union has a duty to protect children from sexual exploitation and abuse. Apparently the only mechanism for doing this is a complete revokation of the right to privacy.
EU Home Affairs Commissioner Ylva Johnansson (a Swede) has reintroduced the legislation which will destroy any semblance of privacy left to European citizens. This is the lattest in a long list of developments at the European level whereby the privacy, and therefore the rights, of European citizens is being rapidly eroded.
In November an investigation by Statewatch revealed that the rules and legislative change at Europol, the EU’s policing agency, will enable the agency and the EU to collect, share and utilise the personal data of anyone in Europe who has an adjacent connection to a Europol action. Even if that person is not being accused or suspected of a crime.
At the memberstate level, the Irish Government has already been caught illegally retaining the digital communications of its citizens. Communications usually obtained by American authorities (illegally) and then forwarded to the Irish government.
What really makes these actions laughable is the fact that same organizations which promote gender transitioning and a dangerous homosexual lifestyle to children is enacting a complete destruction of personal privacy on the grounds of "protecting" the same children they put in danger. The European Union even utilizes digital and social media to promote interaction with the same predators it will soon be ‘targeting’.
All sensible Europeans and especially those of us who are nationalists know that “protecting children” is a mere cover. The modern neoliberal state is engaged in countless ideological battles and must therefore be able to monitor the thoughts and feelings of its citizenry.
The European Union already massively censors foreign media (Russian and otherwise) without clear legal footing. The censorship of Russian state media in response to the Russian invasion of Ukraine violated the constitutions of several member states, including Denmark and Sweden. Despite this the European Union continues to cast aside freedom of information and the freedom of the press and media.
What happens when a German mother texts her sister about how she worries her son may be sent to die in Ukraine? Will she be arrested? Will the Swedish boy serving out his mandatory military service be questioned by Europol if he dislikes serving along side homosexuals or women?
Will this author and publication become a target?
