This sounds a bit like Lenin. We know it doesn't work because in the power void created a worse opressor will flourish. How about I take my business to Ireland if you ban encryption or avoid taxes that fund your paycheck, as an individual?
Would you not kill a man who tries to force their way into your home to read your correspondence? I would!
If you aren’t willing to draw non-negotiable lines, you will simply end up ceding more and more of your freedom in exchange for nothing.

> Mass surveillance, of course, isn’t what the delegation is proposing. The fear isn’t that a French investigator will read every WhatsApp message. French investigators won't care about every WhatsApp message. But they definitely will slurp them all up, process them all with AI, and read them whenever they have an interest. And they will deny they are doing this as they do this.
It will become more important over time - Telegram and the TON coin are reintegrating. So messaging surveillance is financial surveillance too?

What a delightfully complex and speculative ecosystem we've developed. Sure do hope that no-one uses the compound key of all of a person's purchases, movements, and interpersonal communications for anything bad. Gee. Just gotta wonder what those eggheads are up to!
I'm starting to think we need to make encryption a protected class, so that we can label speaking against it as hate speech. Let's start putting some of these politicians in jail for being stupid.

From what I understood, it is very clear to them that even if these laws comes to pass, a good amount of criminal activities will move to other safer options. However, the general criminal is not technically competent. Currently, with WhatsApp…
