Good afternoon everyone,

Just chiming in about a couple of points of the proposal, which I currently 
think are the most important points to be aware of:

- Several of the CC2 / #ChatControl-proposals are (potentially) back under this 
new umbrella, and particularly the first half of 2025 will see a “Technology 
Roadmap on encryption to identify and assess technological solutions to enable 
lawful access to data by law enforcement authorities in 2026”. This is a hot 
topic in many EU countries currently, the French National Assembly recently 
rejected a similar proposal, and in Sweden a proposal is likely to come forward 
to parliament soonish (the proposal was on public request for comments during 
the fall).

- PQC and QKD roadmaps / plans. While the usefulness of PQC (quantum safe 
cryptography) is undisputed, QKD (e.g. quantum-based cryptography) has faced 
criticism from expert groups within member states. Despite this, it remains an 
integral part of ProtectEU.

- “European Critical Communication System (EUCCS)”, an idea for a EU-common 
communications system / architecture for first responders. It might be of 
interest to members to reason wrt. which role the Internet should have in such 
a system / architecture.

(The communication in text format: 
https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/HTML/?uri=CELEX:52025PC0148)

The entire initiative itself is quite broad, and does interestingly not contain 
any references to the potentially upcoming “Digital Networks Act” (fair share 
and so forth).

Br,
Fredrik
