(Don’t) Try to use the sole function of a gun on yourself without harming yourself. Now use WhatsApp on yourself and see what happens. Do you do nothing because you have to think up something to write? The act of writing up the auction is the first part of the crime. Even if you don’t go through with selling a human you may or may not have, you may still be charged for having written that message and sharing it somehow.
- giantg2 7y agoI don't see the point you are trying to make. Using the function of a gun on oneself is not a lawful use case, just as selling a human is not a lawful use case for WhatsApp. A more apt comparison using your example of not writing anything to encrypt would be the possession of a firearm compared to the possession of an E2E system. Both have lawful as well as unlawful uses. On the part about writing the message being the first part of the crime and comparing that to committing suicide with a gun, the gun is the means by which the crime was committed, just as the means for the crime of selling the person would have been the medium through which it was transacted - WhatsApp in this case. Perhaps you where trying to explain something else?
