Absolutely unacceptable and ridiculous.
Keep them informed, of course they care about your opinion, especially seeing how anyplace else in the world where such things were introduced there were successful revolutions and people doing that ended up in jail. Oops.

Some keep trying. That's how democracy and politics works in general.
Nah, a logical OR in their favor is not how democracy should work.

STASI enters the chat.
Their kind never leaves the chat, it's a professional habit

Yeah. "EU wants this, EU wants that" - bullshit, the EU has no will of its own. A set of politicians within the EU, on the other hand.

Compelling search engines to deindex results, age verification, chat monitoring: stay golden, EU.

Many people in the US thought “He won’t”
So, call your representatives.

So, need a non-homicidal, non-EU country to run an XMPP server then...

Ugh, this shit again...
Are there any initiatives out there to call a stop to this? Or even better, initiatives to introduce legislation that forbids setting up this kind of surveillance infrastructure altogether?

...run a country by myself? I suppose it's possible.

So Canada?
(They do have a history of going a little overboard with the homicidal stuff. But they've come a long way in the last few decades.)
A lot overboard, really. There is a long way to go for truth and reconciliation.
As for data safety, its not looking too great: https://tuta.com/blog/canada-bill-c2-surveillance

Your local Pirate Party and organizations like Bits of Freedom can help out.

The EU also does not have a president like you know from countries. There is no supreme leader, and laws are made with every member state involved.

Wtf. Is Signal going to be affected? I just recently installed Signal on my phone.

I agree that calling representatives can always be a good idea. But you cant compare the US and the EU.
There is no "he", there is no president. No single person can run nor ruin it.
It's simply not as fragile, but again, always let your voice be heard like you suggest. Just in case.

I'd almost say lol, get a VPS in China.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend, and they have zero say over what I do, only what they do. China could demand and scream and bitch all they want over an encrypted set of programs and you'd never have to care, move to another domain and provider and copy-paste. Lock it down, only use it with encryption and let the wolves huff and puff until they're blue in the face.

Signal has already stated that they will pull out of the UK if they go through with their version of this, I imagine they'll say the same for the EU.
Get a good VPN, exit it from a non-5 eyes country, and hope they don't start blocking by phone number alone.... and hopefully they'll drop the phone number requirement sooner than later.
Also, welcome to Signal!
