All content will have to go through "filters" - that means it is the end of end to end encrypted services.
- notahacker 8y agoThe proposed law applies only to commercial sites which publish user-submitted content which can be accessed by the general public.
- dingo_bat 8y agoFor now. If this becomes commonplace and accepted, you can be damn sure they will try to extend this to more and more channels.
- merinowool 8y agoI can't see how a messenger type of software to which general public has access wouldn't fall into that.
- zaarn 8y agoBecause the stuff you put in your messenger is usually not posted publicly but to private groups or single contacts?
- notahacker 8y agoIf something is end to end encrypted, then by definition it is not made available (in unencrypted form) to the general public (as opposed to a select group of individuals with the relevant keys/logins) The fact the software itself may be available to the wider public to set up other private communications channels to exchange other messages with other parties is irrelevant
- merinowool 8y agoIn that case it will be very simple to circumvent. As webpage could be delivered once you log in, in form of an encrypted message.
