That works until the government and media successfully push the narrative to the public that anyone using encryption is supporting child molesters and terrorists.
- MYEUHD 1y agoThe government itself uses encryption. In fact the proposed chat control law has an exception for government agencies
- tavavex 1y agoThat doesn't counter the argument. The people arguing against encryption would just liken it to the government being able to use military equipment that you, as an individual, can't have. "Free communication is a dangerous tool, only the government can be entrusted with the power it provides" and so on.
- zarzavat 1y agoThis may work on boomers but for younger people 90% of the use of a phone is for messaging and obviously you don't want anyone listening in to your private conversations especially for sexting. People are not going to stop sending each other their boobs or penii, and while that remains the case, encrypted messaging will thrive.
