This is a high level description of intent (by a third party), not a legal promise.
This is not enforceable and promises that are not enforceable are usually seen by BigCos of today as optional. My 2c.
- echoangle 2y agoWell I wasn’t saying I would sue them, I was arguing this: > It is possible to set up end to end encryption where two different keys unlock your data. Your key, and a government key. I assume google does this. Which by definition is wrong (unless the government is a party in the communication you want to E2E-Encrypt).
- dwaite 2y agoI believe the point being made here is that some governments legally mandate that they are a party in communication.
- ptero 2y agoI agree completely that it is wrong in spirit. But wikipedia's text is a definition, not the only existing one. And for practical use even the most obvious definitions have legal caveats. For example, asking for 10 gallons of soda at a restaurant advertising unlimited refills will not fly, even though virtually everyone will agree on the definition of the term "unlimited". My 2c.
