Comment on EU "Chat Control" and Mandatory Client Side Scanningparent

Mainline WiFi drivers will easily let you break the law by just pretending to be in a place with different regulations. Assuming this ever gets implemented in Linux, there's no reason to believe you won't be able to just pretend to be in Uzbekistan or whatever where this EU law doesn't apply.

If literally every jurisdiction on Earth makes it a crime, then I guess this option would go away, but that seems unlikely to me.
