At HK Softworks we build products that respect privacy. Our privacy policy is deliberately simple because we collect nothing beyond what is necessary to answer your messages. Private communication is non-negotiable.
The EU Chat Control directive would force messaging apps to scan private conversations on your device before they are sent. It undermines end-to-end encryption and creates backdoors that hostile actors could exploit.
Privacy is a basic requirement for journalists, activists, businesses, and anyone who shares personal details. Breaking encryption makes everyone less safe and erodes trust in digital services.
Once a mandatory scanning system exists, it can be repurposed. Today it may target suspected abuse, tomorrow it could monitor dissent, political organizing, or trade secrets. Building universal surveillance into phones sets a precedent that other governments will copy.
You can help stop the directive. Visit fightchatcontrol.eu to learn more and send a pre-written letter, or email your representatives directly and ask them to reject Chat Control.
