> Mandating certain measures which sometimes can be used to circumvent the privacy guarantees of encryption doesn't mean encryption is banned. If there's a way around encryption for someone, then there's a way around encryption for everyone (because it will get out) If there's a way around the encryption, then it's not really encrypted. If the Australian government has mandated that there must be a known way to circumvent encryption, then yes, they have effectively banned encryption.
