The fix for that will be to make using those levels of encryption illegal and to put you under suspicion for criminal activity (suspicion of terrorism, for instance) in addition to the criminal activity of using that type of encryption in the first place.
Yes, routing mechanisms, etc exist to make it harder to find out who is using the encryption but the law enforcement power could then also be extended to take down anyone participating in such a network as well as setting up honeypots that somehow get around entrapment laws.
- nitwit005 7y agoCriminals, almost by definition, are good at doing things without law enforcement catching on. It's possible to try to crack down on this stuff, but like anything else they'll only catch the less competent people.
- sjy 7y agoCatching the less competent people isn’t a bad thing, though. Someone who is competent enough to commit crimes and get away with it is also competent enough to get a well-paid job and choose to live a pro-social life, without the risk of one slip-up sending them to prison.
