that is why police already have access to mechanisms to remove privacy from people suspected of being a pedophile.
- sscaryterry 4mo agoThe existing mechanisms are inadequate or not fit for 2026. Hence this discussion. You are agreeing with me :)
- john_strinlai 4mo ago>You are agreeing with me :) i am absolutely not :) you want to provide unfettered warrantless access to all of your communications. ive been fighting against that sort of thing for approaching 40 years now.
- sscaryterry 4mo ago> have access to mechanisms to remove privacy from people suspected of being a pedophile I don't understand that part then. You can't break open E2EE by willing it open. Right now, if I wanted a new account, I walk into any supermarket, spend a quid, and I've got a burner, with WhatsApp.
