A good argument could be made we don't need end to end encryption without a back door. And in this environment, there may be little political opposition.
- dovin 6y agoA lot of the speech that's being labeled as "inciting violence" on Parler would feel different if it was spoken privately. The fact that it's being communicated publicly puts it in a different category, almost like you're saying it on TV or in the proverbial town square. I don't think this is setting any sort of precedent for attacking private communications.
- j8hn 6y agoI don't think it's any secret that groups were planning an attack on the Capital before the days events started in DC. Were those insurgents domestic terrorists? What if it is to be found that they primarily used Signal for example to communicate their plans with each other?

- j8hn 6y agoIf terrorists use Signal to plan and carry out attacks, why shouldn't the technology be regulated or banned?
