There is a deadline of September 1, 2025 to apply to become one of the advisors to the EC on this. Bert has himself spoken to the European Parliament on this topic earlier. End-to-end encryption is in the crosshairs, with the eradication of the last vestiges of online privacy if the degradation and addition of back doors continue and is codified into law.

quietus writes:Risevatnet Lake is a small dammed lake near the city of Svelgen in the South-West of Norway. It primarily serves as a fish farm.On April 7 its dam control system was breached by a Russian hacktivist group, Z-PENTEST (guess what the Z stands for). The main valve was put on maximum opening, increasing the water flow to maximum volume for four hours before the incident was detected; on April 10 the dam's owner alerted authorities.The hackers got in through a weak password -- the classical 123456, or risevatnet123, perhaps -- on the web interface used to control the dam. This web interface was directly connected to the Internet.
