Well that’s the point, catching CSAM is just a very convenient excuse. Once that’s through, it will just be a matter of extending it to terrorism. Then you can declare anyone a terrorist and bam you have free reign to monitor anyone you want.

Or you could just accuse them of the really dangerous crimes, like copyright violations or insulting politicians.

That requires some kind of proof or bureaucratic fuckery. If you take any ecologist group for instance, you just have to pin a terrorist label on them, and bam, now you can spy on them legally. They’re trying to do it in France right now.

Germany too. They are trying to label the climate change protests by the “Letzte Generation” (Last generation) group as organized crime and terrorism.
