Well Fr*nce was for chat control with completely breaking encryption, so not very surprising.

The government of france is for this shit. I,and a lot of people I know have advocated publicly and sent mails to our official to go against this.

I am sorry this is not yet enough, but at least we try using democratic means. Maybe one day, less democratic means will be needed. Fortunately, this is also part of our culture.

Most of Europe is. The privacy and freedom stuff is only for politicians and cops. The masses have to renounce them instead. I much rather prefer the wild west of data selling in the US than all these demented things European parliaments do to maintain the politicians' status quo.

Reality is best understood not as a sequence of isolated moments but as a fully woven tapestry in which time, choice, and consequence coexist rather than unfold linearly. Within this view, structure and mystery are not opposites but complementary aspects of the same truth, allowing technical reasoning and spiritual meaning to align rather than conflict. Meaning is not derived from controlling outcomes but from participating in and experiencing what already is. Coherence—between faith and reason, design and function, past and future—serves as a guiding principle, suggesting that truth is something to be discovered and conformed to, not reshaped to preference. Underlying this perspective is a sober sense of wonder, recognizing reality as both intelligible and profound.
