In order to tackle disinformation from Russia, EU wants to become like Russia. From EU’s ”law enforcement roadmap”
**Data retention**: In 2025, the Commission will carry out an impact assessment with a view to updating the EU’s data retention rules. In addition, Europol and Eurojust will work on reinforcing cooperation between law enforcement and service providers when it comes to accessing electronic evidence.
**Lawful interception**; To enable law enforcement to obtain evidence across systems and jurisdictions, the Commission will explore measures to improve cross-border cooperation for lawful interception of data by 2027, both among authorities, and between authorities and services providers. Key actions for the next years include assessing the need to further strengthen the European Investigation Order and supporting the deployment of secured information sharing capacities between Member States, Europol and other security agencies (2026-2028).
**Digital forensics**: Law enforcement and judicial authorities must be able to analyse and preserve digital evidence stored on electronic devices. The Commission, together with Europol, will coordinate a gap and needs analysis for technical solutions in digital forensics and support the development of forensic tools with EU funding and public-private partnerships. Europol is invited to develop into a centre of excellence for operational expertise in the field of digital forensics and step up coordination with national authorities and private parties (from 2026).
**Decryption**: In 2026, the Commission will present a Technology Roadmap on encryption to identify and evaluate solutions that enable lawful access to encrypted data by law enforcement, while safeguarding cybersecurity and fundamental rights. The Commission will also support the development of new decryption technologies to equip Europol with a next generation decryption capability (from 2030).
**Standardisation**: The Commission will work with Europol, industry stakeholders, experts and law enforcement practitioners to develop and streamline an EU approach to standardisation for internal security, with a focus on digital forensics, lawful disclosure and lawful interception.
**AI solutions for law enforcement**: By 2028, the Commission will promote the development and deployment of AI tools that enable authorities to lawfully and effectively process large volumes of seized data, helping to filter and analyse digital evidence more efficiently.
I get the need given the threats from Russia and China but:

Is a bit Orwellian, no?

This will in the end only be used for mass censorship, not of actual disinformation, but information which frau führer Ursula doesn’t like so that she and her criminal clan can remain in power for longer.

Ah, BBC altering Trump speech on Jan 6 is ok.
Also, Russian blowing their own pipeline BS is ok.

Fine in theory, but if they start dragging regular people to court because we clicked some YouTube video with an AI voice that talks Kremlin talking points on it, I hope people will raise an alarm, because this is a slippery slope, as true as it is that there’s widespread misinformation right now.

Holy shit this is so late but very good to finally see it – don’t forget Chinese and Russian wumaos have teamed up in a disinformation alliance against us. They have troll farms all over the world, lots in Africa.
