It all started with "think of the children". Remember people getting arrested for possessing legal artwork of anime illustrations on their phones? Yeah... buckle up because It's gonna get a lot worse.
Now the EU authorities will have full monitoring power over private messages and direct messages.
This isn't even the endgame of this moral panic safetyism, where people are trading their freedom for the guise of protecting their children. This mandates client-side scanning on the user's devices for any offending material before it is encrypted. Then the automatically generated report is forwarded to the authorities.
The endgame is FULL CONTROL over what you are allowed to say and not allowed to say, what you are allowed to enjoy, and might make certain video games and anime completely illegal.
Send some totally normal anime images to a friend via chat? AI content detection falsely flags it as CSAM, and then you get arrested.
Meanwhile, the real victims continue to get groomed and abused by the usual suspects as the authorities turn a blind eye, as they "don't want to exacerbate racism".
We have gone beyond the metrics of a simple "clown world"... this is just straight-up Anarchotyranny hell world, monitoring legal speech, while actual criminals are allowed to victimize anyone.
Apparently there’s talk rn that there’s likely quite a bit of underhanded tactics that was employed to force it to pass despite lacking votes…how “Democratic”.
I don’t want to read another post or comment from some random EU-supporting comedian telling me that EU “champions democracy and free speech”, as their governments just (allegedly suspiciously) passed the biggest privacy invasion bill by far.
Your hot air means nothing. The Emperor has no clothes.
After much thought, we have decided not to raise the price of Palworld following the 1.0 release and will keep it at $29.99.
We are incredibly proud of how far Palworld has come. Thanks to the amazing support of our players, it has become a success beyond our wildest dreams.
As a small way of saying thank you, we'll be keeping the price at $29.99.
Thank you for your continued support.
