"We should be striving for designing cryptographic systems which allow for governments to be conditionally able to decrypt messages." No, we really shouldn't.

  At least it should be done instead of thinking that you need to "add a backdoor" or "ban encryption."

    Sounds like a backdoor to me though.

      A backdoor is a secret way to gain access to a system. I propose that we explicitly design our system to give them access. It wouldn't be a secret that they could get access to the information they needed under certain circumstances.

        Fair enough, but I still think that we should not :)
