      Politico’s framing leans pro‑legislation, subtly signaling support for the bill by foregrounding officials and advocates who stress enforcement while downplaying arguments about encryption and civil liberties.

    The website, called Fight Chat Control, was set up by Joachim, a 30-year-old software engineer living in Aalborg, Denmark.

    Does anyone fucking proof-read anything any more? Or does unknown just mean ‘not famous’ these days? FML.
