EU: These are scary times – let's backdoor encryption!
(www.theregister.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
My question is: even if EU manages to apply laws for backdooring encryption, wouldn't cybercriminals just use different tools? They may force Signal to backdoor its encryption, but what about Briar? Will they backdoor the Tor network? Will they ban it entirely? What about Matrix? They can't prevent offshore encrypted instances.
Bingo! It's simply surveillance of the masses.
