The EU has been toying with the idea of fundamentally breaking E2EE by enforcing client-side scanning of CSAM in private messages. This has been met with a lot of criticism, both from EU officials and external academics and security professionals.
Now the question is, will they do so before the end of 2025?
Resolution criteria:
If EU passes a law mandating scanning of encrypted messages for CSAM, resolves as YES.
If no such law is passed, or E2EE platforms are carved an exception, resolves as NO.
This question is managed and resolved by Manifold.
