Does anyone know WHO is actually pushing this? Who is behind this? Who initially proposed it, and who is lobbying for it? Gimme names, c'mon

See the Feedback section on the initiative (https://ec.europa.eu/info/law/better-regulation/have-your-sa...) for various comments from various organizations/companies, pushing for various things.

As far as I can tell, no EU organ has actually published any actual proposal or recommendation to introduce such mandatory screening as described in the OP.

My guess is that the actual proposal, when it comes, will not include industrywide mandatory screening or breaking end-to-end encryption.

These wr going to actually be proposed in the fall, but it has now been pushed back to December.
The intelligence agencies wouldn't be very good at their job if you knew what they were up to, would they?
Ashton Kutcher. Yes, I'm serious.
