• Home routing and encryption technologies are making lawful interception harder for Europol
  • PET-enabled home routing allows for secure communication, hindering law enforcement’s ability to intercept and monitor communications
  • Europol suggests solutions such as disabling PET technologies and implementing cross-border interception standards to address the issue.

    lawful interception

    Idk bout that. Usually you get a warrant for wiretapping and then you pay someone to install it. If they are trying to break encryption or identifying users, that means they inherently are doing something the law does not favor.

    Let’s also acknowledge that if encryption is bad because it cannot be broken, that means encryption is pretty good at what it should do.

    Breaking encryption is never something you do for the right reasons.

        Kinda drives home another point too. Breaking someone else’s encryption is something you do to enemies. If you’re trying to break my encryption communication or installing a backdoor, you’re an enemy, simple as that.

        My eternal thanks to FOSS, and open encryption standards.
