Congress could rule that the copying/filtering method is illegal and that Henning’s method of mirroring is the only acceptable practice. Then we don’t care so much about the specific means. I’m not a huge fan of ombudsman/czar positions but I think it would make sense to have some sort of privacy advocate within the executive and maybe even a house committee on the topic. It’s abundantly clear at this point that when it comes online communications we are no closer today to addressing issues of privacy, encryption, online free speech, than we were thirty years ago when the battles over clipper were fought.
- brokenmachine 7y agoWhat's Henning’s method of mirroring? Couldn't find it with a quick google.
- posterboy 7y agoThe GA probably has the power to bring up such a charge, but they don't need to do it within this case. Then again, in practice they probably don't, if they are like the German General Staatsanwalt bound by orders and thus see no evidence for any wrong doing.
