Why do you take their motives at face value?
Obviously, the moment these platforms lose privacy, the criminals cease communication on them immediately. So they're the last group this is aimed at.
The solution to crime is the same investigation and detective work and anonymous tip offs and so on that it's always been. People going undercover and infiltrating these groups and then bringing them down.
By chasing the criminals off this platforms, all that happens is the detective work gets harder. Now they've got to go find where to start their infiltration, all over again.
This outcome is so obvious that the only conclusions available are that the lawmakers are either IQ 60 morons, or that they have malicious intent.
- okr 2y agoI read it somewhere, but most of the crime is done by people with low IQ. So it makes work for the police actually easier. Well, we went in billions to these chat apps. The state just follows. As sceptical as i am, i think, i want the state to resolve online crimes.
