> Besides, there’s no way of really knowing whether Chat Control would actually be (or remain) limited to CSAM.

I definitely agree with the article here. Probably after Chat Control will be implemented for CSAM this would act as a gateway towards using this tehnology for other things.

I am curious whether chat control will extend to mail or other means of online comunication, if it will be implemented ofc(hopefully not).

I’ll probably start communicating with my friends over phone more either way, I don’t want my conversations to be monitored 24/7.

today's voice recognition tools are pretty good, look at meta's recent results. I wouldn't be that sure that phone discussions will not be monitored in some future. It's likely the other way - phone service providers are few in nr, it could be easy to force the change on them

I don’t know about Europe but the US has been scanning trunk lines of domestic and international calls for decades looking for keywords and actually have decades of archived conversations that AI will make it all the more feasible to comb through and look for thought crimes.
