I think they'd argue that this is them doing their job: trying to negate the advantages that sophisticated criminals have over law enforcement efforts.
Could you elaborate on what you see as "doing their job" in this context?
- itsathrowaway56 3y agoGiven that we don't catch, deal with appropriately or rehabilitate the majority of the non-sophisticated criminals, I'd suggest we start with that before we decide to start spying on the rest of the population? Based on how RIPA and it's successors in the UK have suffered from excessive use I doubt that we will be restricting this power to "sophisticated" criminals if it comes to pass.
- nitwit005 3y agoSurely this won't help them with sophisticated criminals, as they'll find some other way to communicate. You can easily build your own end to end encryption method based on things on github. It might help them with the dumb criminals.
