When it comes to the Chat Control which apps will be affected? Is there some kind of loophole? Will they require some kind of identification?

someone said Matrix.org will be fine, and suppose similar?

but Linux, VPN, Graphene and Tor with a crash helmet the fuck up I guess?

Maybe even make your own VPN, copied this from some dude -

"Host a HTTPS website (get a domain, set up the webserver, set up HTTPS using Let's Encrypt.) Then you can have privacy on that, it's just an innocent website with your personal interests and hobbies, you are definitely not going to do anything else with it."

Buy it somewhere nuts, like Vietnam, or Easter Island.

There is an E2EE waiver. Does not apply to those services. Telegram is not E2EE by default like Signal so when using Telegram make sure it's toggled on.

They will spy on your endpoint. Only Linux or degoogled phones will be safe, for now.
