    This is super awesome and all.

    But I value computers and that doesnt fix anything related to computer, sadly

    They are exercising their authority

    You know very well that internet will never be the same if they will restrict it and ruin it

    I would like to see them try. If they try to force chat control onto European linux computers we can just get our OS updates from african or asian servers VPN traffic can be disguised. Even the Chinese have problem detecting and blocking it. SSH tunnels can replace VPN's. SSH has plenty of legitimate uses.

    Even if they somehow manage to seize total control of the internet (which is VERY unlikely) we could just switch to a completely different protocol like meshtastic

    I know

    But

    We wouls be just ignoring their moves, and well... you know very well that countries like to follow each other and apply same or similar laws, right?

    This is very sad as it restricts freedoms of potential moving, but the number of countries which we can SSH/VPN to and do whatever would be growing smaller and smaller

    Why not use software, that cannot be controlled by design? A zero trust, peer to peer network.
