Wouldn’t this breach multiple EU privacy laws?
This is what I’m wondering.

It’s almost like Macron wants to be decapitated.
This will definitely not be misused by anyone in the government. How on the earth did such blatantly dystopian law get passed?
Macron is a NATO puppet.
Yes let’s just say buzzwords without context or reason, makes perfect sense.
The Patriot Act took care of that for us in the US!
I am Indian. Even our douche bag of politicians will think twice before passing such legislation. Of course they will spy illegally on us but they won’t pass such obvious fascist legislation.
At least it’s happening out in the open? Other states do this without parlimentary or congressional approval.
Privacy and anonymity is illusion.
LIberté,Egalité,Fraternité.Do they like, want the protests to continue on our something? They can’t be that stupid.
The protests are for police brutality against Minorities. Apparently the shot 17 years old kid was repeatedly hit with back of the gun which made him moves his leg away from the breaks and since it’s an automatic the car started moving forward…the rest is history.
…hold my sancerre!

A Google search for “France phone camera” only gives this posted link and dailymail.co.uk article, both of which are not really trustworthy sources, IMO.
So I’m gonna go with “this is very possibly fake news”.
It’s very real, here are two legit sources in french:
You can use the service of your choice to translate them if you don’t understand french.
Is this a legitimate source of news?
It’s based on a syndicated news release from Agence France Presse. Here’s a direct transcription of the article from AFP: https://www.barrons.com/news/france-set-to-allow-police-to-spy-through-phones-b21f1f21
The article does not mention, how will this be achieved technology wise? I don’t know of any universal way that a government might activate these features on a person’s phone. Unless network operators/phone manufacturers start installing backdoors. This does not bode well.
I’m wondering the same. Hopefully privacy oriented projects such as GrapheneOS can counter whatever technology they will try to implement.
Patriot act requires them to do so. I am gonna guess they probably will unless they want to go to federal prison.
You’re right. I hadn’t even checked where GrapheneOS was based, that’s bad.
The US has exported it’s police brutality and police state to France. They even have the similar right wing news apperatice to convince the populace it’s all good. Making Uncle Sam proud 🇺🇸🇫🇷🍟🥖
Not every bad thing people do is the fault of the US.
The French can be proper assholes. Look up the history of Haiti and which European colonies purchased the most African slaves.
Then ask. Where did all they go?
France has been burning itself to the ground longer than the US has even been a thing.
I guess NATO stopped pretending they care about free speech and democracy?
