some babies sing themselves to sleep
my baby complains herself to sleep

being a speaker at VRS25 means being an occasional baby-sitter

Chat Control is the latest example of "But think about the children!" (BTATC) policy proposal that ends privacy as we know it. It would have an algorithm scan your messages, detect whether its illegal content, and then report it to authorities. What would actually happen: mass surveillance.
