So do you also agree that e2e encryption with a backdoor is impossible to do securely? Should people not be allowed to use e2e encryption? The EU also is trying to pass a law forcing companies to have a backdoor to their encryption.
- SideburnsOfDoom 3y ago> The EU also is trying to pass a law forcing companies to have a backdoor to their encryption. And some US state is banning one app rather than trying to find sensible privacy protection that applies to any app. I'm not sure of your point, TBH. It doesn't follow at all from the above.
- scarface74 3y ago> If it's technically possible to do it, but not technically possible to do it legally, then maybe it's a bad thing and don't do it at all So it follows that you are against W2s encryption because it will be impossible to do securely and allow a backdoor.
- SideburnsOfDoom 3y ago"Look over here! This law is bad therefor all laws are bad" is not a very convincing argument.
- scarface74 3y agoIt was claimed that any law that was passed whether or not it was technically possible was de facto good.
- tchaffee 3y agoThat's a gross exaggeration of what was claimed. The idea was that if a law is good but it prevents some companies from legally operating, that's ok. For example, if a company can't profit without using child labor then it's ok for that company to go out of business. Lots of folks feel the same about privacy. If you can't protect my data, then it's fine if you go out of business.
- SideburnsOfDoom 3y agoIt's sadly not worth debating this person. When it's not exaggeration/oversimplification, it's a change of subject or broken libertarian dogma.
