We need to pay attention to the forces behind this. Both Ylva Johansson’s chat control argumentation and the “Going Dark” rhetoric is like a copy-paste from the FBI Director James Comey back in 2014.

The chat control bill was shot down by the European Parliament last year (still under endless debate in the Council of the EU), after the revelations that American tech companies and authorities has been part of the work behind the proposal. “Going Dark” is the new attempt.

Today we sent 116 pages on mass surveillance and its consequences to each and every member of the EU Parliament.
This autumn, we urge them to vote for a free society. To say No to chat control.

Unfortunately as it stands now, it does not work because Tailscale use an IPv6 range that we block.
So Mullvad will block Tailscale from operating.
A shame, but perhaps something will change in the future.

Yes. The impact is this:
"This means that the device will always send any network traffic to the local network outside the tunnel. Including public IPs advertised by rogue APs and similar."
..and the resolution is somewhere on the horizon. You are welcome to follow the Github repository for our app to view any progress when it is actioned.
