Sadly Australia did the opposite - they can force us to backdoor applications and punish us for refusing. Australia is not the place to look for security applications.
- raxxorrax 6y agoAh, the old penal colony mindset where the citizens are secretly prisoners.
- classified 6y agoExcept it’s not a secret any more.
- Rebelgecko 6y agoWhen asked about how the law would ban certain mathematical operations, IIRC the Australian PM said something along the lines of "The laws of mathematics should be subservient to the laws of Australia"
- AnimalMuppet 6y agoYeah, good luck with that. Let us know how it works out for you, Australia.
- BLKNSLVR 6y agoAs an Australian, my plan is to route most of my traffic through a self hosted VPN on a server that resides outside the five eyes (and possibly also the extended thirteen eyes). Yes, there are insecurities and holes in the above, pending the methods of implementation, but it's one level of potentially many. And whilst it's good to know that there are technical workarounds such as this, the real work, the real progress for society, is to make these technical workarounds unnecessary by, as the EFF says, contacting your representatives and letting them know what they're constituency thinks. Politics, sickeningly, is the only avenue for worthwhile change.
