If end to end encryption becomes illegal, then politicians financial records should become public.

Criminalising end to end encryption is crazy

[Jeremyak]

Pretty dark world we live in when a private conversation is illegal.

By their logic, if someone does a murder with a knife, the knife maker company should be held accountable for this murder.

Okay, Big Brother. Show us *your* texts.

Are you kidding, what kind of extremism and terrorism? The fact that Pasha does not give away the keys to the TG does not mean that he supports it. On the contrary, he protects ordinary people from draining correspondence and personal data!

Remember, the government doesn't like competition

Asymmetric Encryption is easily one of the greatest inventions in human history

Benjamin Franklin once famously said, "Three can keep a secret, if two of them are dead."

Criminalising end 2 end encryption is basically like criminalising privacy, it’s like criminalising people speaking quietly or going to a different room to have a discussion in private, something thats basically a human right.

[redwan_lmati]

By this logic, the inventors of cellphones, planes, automobiles and even electricity should all be condemned and held accountable since they faciliated so many terrorists attacks

That Mike Lynch and co-founder both dying in freak accidents the same weekend story is wild

Funny that the Russian government wanted access and he said no, they let him leave the country peacefully. Now the French wanted the same thing and he said no, so they decide to imprison him. Clown world.

[nettlecarrier]

I love it how everyone constantly talks about how he left Russia because Russian authorities wanted him to cooperate with them, but nobody mentions that he left USA because U.S. authorities wanted him to cooperate with them

[Monstylicious]

They hate not having total control and will violate any and all standards, morals, and laws to attain it. Literally evil.

Saying telegram is bad is like saying a knife is bad.

[revenger]

So he left bad Russian, so no government interfered in his socials, and he got arrested in good France for the exact same thing. Ironic.

[zblurth]

I love the slogan of my country is "Liberty, equality, fraternity" then does bullshit like this all day...
Fuck this
