It depends on the point of view and the situation.
If you are a free software developer reverse-engineering a graphics driver, you sure want to be able to intercept the traffic between the graphics card and the CPU (I don't do driver development so I might be completely off, but I hope you get the point anyway).
However, if you are having a conversation with a secret source, you want this freedom to not be intercepted.
- xg15 7y agoYes, those are the extremes. But the more common case seems to me that you are an app developer selling user data. In this scenario, the app developer certainly has an interest not to be intercepted, however the user and actual owner of the device likely would benefit from interception.
