The European government has spent a few years trying to break encryption. The results have been, at best, mixed.

Instead, it hides its intentions behind phrases like “client-side scanning” and “chat control.” But it all just means the same thing: purposefully weakening or breaking encryption to allow the government to monitor communications.
