This standard response misses the nuance of end-to-end encryption: If the default everywhere was EoE encryption, it becomes significantly harder for anyone to target you (for an average value of you)
- XorNot 12y agoWell every second start proposition on HN is "you give us access to your..." So if the default was EoE, it still wouldn't matter.
- lifeisstillgood 12y agothis is really pedantic but why is End To End Encryption shortened as EoE?
- XorNot 12y agoNo idea - I was just grabbing some terminology used in the post I was responding to. EtE would make more sense.
- harlanlewis 12y agoTargeted surveillance always gets its man. Global EoE encryption's benefit is making it significantly (and perhaps prohibitively) more expensive to engage in bulk surveillance.
