A sufficiently conspiratorially-minded person could wonder if this is just kabuki, to cover that they can already break encryption at some exorbitant cost.

- HappySweeney 6y agoI doubt they can. This comes up every few years, and each time it gets shitcanned due to techs showing politicians and bureaucrats how idiotic it is. New politicians and bureaucrats show up a few years later, and the process repeats. I have even had one of them delete their Reddit account after I conclusively showed them that they can live in a world with enforcible warrants for encrypted comms, or one with online banking (which was sad as his half of the debate dissappeared - but I guess that was the point).
