True, but until such time they have proven it is an issue and that there are not other investigative avenues to be used to capture and prosecute terrorists then they should keep their hands off my encryption
That is how free societies work, we do not give up freedom simply because there might at some point in the future be a problem...
- 746F7475 11y agoI'm not suggesting that they should break encryption, but I'd like to point out again that it's pretty hard to prove that breaking encryption is necessary in "the fight against terrorism" until they can break the encryption and show us the content. If they get to the content in other ways we are just going to say: "aha, see you don't need to break encryption after all"
