Maybe they finally researched enough to understand that it was impossible to backdoor messaging encryption without compromising its security permanently, like everyone who knows enough about it was already telling them.
And when you say “was already telling them” what you really mean is “has been constantly telling them since the first time this came up in politics in the 90s”. This is not ignorance, this is deliberate.

Phew… didn’t expect that though
I did. The European Parliament has its faults, but they usually make sensible decisions in the interest of the EU citizens.
Right. It’s often the European commission that comes up with insane ideas which are then reported as “it will probably happen”, before the parliament votes it down.
För now. Elections are next year and I’ve read that it could result in a massive shift to the right. I fully expect more lobbyism from companies to be more succesful… We’ll see I guess.
Decision was probably based on the fear of having their own corruptive actions found?
