US DOJ Continues Its Attack on User Privacy
-
Sadly attempting to leverage human tragedy to undermine American freedoms and privacies, the DoJ has taken the latest events to turn on the citizens and technology companies saying it is unreasonable for Americans to have encryption to protect their data that the government doesn't have access to.

you linked to the Delhi article.

Fixed, thanks.

That what you get when you elect conservatives. These people are so out of touch with modern world, it’s scary.

Not even close, those people are welcome to come and go in their damn house. You on the other hand might get shot in the face if you just walk into someone's house uninvited.

People can still get in and out of their phone. I don't have to give my door key to the DoJ.

Yeah - I'm trying to come up with a physical example to compare to digital security - but I'm coming up blank.

A better way to express it is "I won't live in a house that has locks that are managed by my neighbors."

Doors aren't bad. You lock your door, the DoJ is an intruder, the key company does not send copies of your keys to the DoJ.

They might be forced too if this gets passed. . .

It's really not good enough. The DOJ can hack your door with lock picks or just bust it down.
I suppose a better example would be a universal garage door opener that only the government is supposed to have, but of course, once the bad guys know about that, they will keep hacking the government until they steal one of those universal door openers. Secure keys for encryption would be the same. The government is as leaky as a cauldron, there's almost no chance they could keep keys like this from the hackers. Then instantly everyone would be vulnerable.

Everyone that uses a mainstream OS or device that operates anywhere in the world that has any operations within the US. Yup
