      Big Tech has no interest in chat control, though.
      They vehemently opposed it from the start.
      How the Danish are acting just doesn’t make sense…

        It’s more complicated than that as control acts as a barrier to entry preventing competitive start ups entering the market and disrupting it so established players probably don’t care as they can bare the cost of compliance if they have to.

          But it would be the other way around:
          Established players would have to completely break and rewrite their existant transport layer in the whole world, just to be able to also cover the EU. (Or leave.)

          While potential new competitors would be able to design it to comply right from the start.
