EU proposes banning encryption backdoors
- erikb 9y agoMany people consider this discussion as personal privacy vs government. However most encrypted communication is done by corps. For instance FB-Chat, Whatsapp, and Gmail probably have more communication going on than any person could do. So in the end it's a battle corp vs government. And in that regard I don't know, but I feel more trust towards a government agency to protect me than a corp. Corps are only nice until they dominate a market. Government is always on the edge between exploiting and protecting its people since they need to be open to some level and can be replaced.
