Something I don't really understand. In my country, it is not even legal to sell/provide a piece of equipement/a service which enable people to communicate ... which cannot be spied on.
As far as I know, it is the law.

- sylware 4y agoNo, what I don't understand is why ppl here who are "fighting for privacy" are not explicit/loud about this law.
- advisedwang 4y agoBecause they are afraid?
- sylware 4y agoAfraid to say out loud there is such a law???
- Nextgrid 4y agoThese spying capabilities generally only require to work once a valid warrant has been provided. The US has those as well, but what's being discussed is warrantless mass-surveillance to anyone who's happy to pay for it.
- sylware 4y agoyep, as far as I know, there are no laws about mass surveillance. At the same time, I don't think there are laws to forbid big data owners to use their global access to this data in order to get an unfair advantage, for instance linkedin.
