Gmail, Microsoft, Meta, LinkedIn: They already scan your messages - voluntarily!

Wait 5 sec.

Did you know that every time you send an email through Gmail or Outlook, post on Instagram, or chat on Facebook Messenger or LinkedIn, your messages are being scanned? That’s right: While Chat Control is heavily debated as one of the worst surveillance laws, Big Tech has silently put scanning practices in place that already do what privacy activists are fighting against in the Chat Control legislative process. The surveillance is global, constant, and affects most people without them even knowing about it.
