But if you're an actual criminal, then there is this solution here that can never be subject to this ruling.
To be fair, AFAIK criminals often use insecure means of communication already so my guess is that this will result in more criminals not putting in the effort to set up/use an encrypted communication network.
However this is 1. probably not something any person who made that law knew 2. a bullshit excuse anyway.
I will just remind yall that an state in the EU has admitted to having access to the Pegasus spyware.
- Jaroslaw Kaczynski, the leader of the ruling Law and Justice party as quoted by the Verge (first article I found)
He is also quoted as saying that claims that Pegasus had been used against political opponents are "utter nonsense".
The Polish controversy was started when the spyware was found on a opposition members phone.
The Law and Justice party, according to polls (and some Poles), is set to win the largest number of seats in tomorrows election, though they might struggle to form a government.
We are doomed aren't we.
