No law can censor a distributed system. ChatControl, so while surely large platforms would LIKE such law while little competitors would not, P2P/distributed networks of FREE software, not mere open source "commercial" services, would not be affected.

It's about time to understand two things:

- Open Source is a way to solve the insustainability of proprietary software AGAINST Free Software;

- Surveillance and censorship can be only defeated by the People rising and imposing their will.

The first is obvious to anybody who know a bit of actual state of things in IT land, the latter it's unlikely since most people are grown without knowing the meaning of freedom.
