That is literally the expressed reason for it. Think of the children. And people are like, “YEAH PROTECT THE CHILDREN, DISMANTLE ALL CIVIL RIGHTS, WE ARE BEING INVADED BY PEDOPHILES, ONLY WAY TO FIGHT THEM IS TO END DEMOCRACY AND LET CORPORATIONS TAKE OVER!”

That is the disgusting part. I mean yeah, pedos are legion and should be dealt with, but all those measures won’t gonna do it. Not even remotely.
I’m just so tired of being constantly fed bullshit and lies. We’re not all apathic or ignorant goddamit.

But our politicians are, truth is our Politicians are so out of touch with the time.
Chat control for one allows governments to read all chats, but at the same time reading and opening physical mail is still considered illegal.

What really stupid is if I really want to see people take all their clothes off I can do that right now without even using a VPN because there’s plenty of websites that have just ignored the government.

I guess it never really was intended to protect kids but just to add another layer of surveillance. What could be more cool if every IP could be associated with an ID. Well, except those who are actual pedos, other criminals or just people who aren’t agnostic to privacy and data protection.
So, as usual, it’s just another attack on peter average.
