“We need construction companies to build homes in a way that allows access to every room at any time for law enforcement” Sounds a bit strange doesn’t it?

I know what you’re getting at, but generally homes are actually built that way.
Law enforcement can always go through any doors or windows if they have a warrant. You’d have to build a bunker to be save from them.

But this isn’t talking about windows or doors, this is more like, “the police needs a special key to enter everyone’s house”

Won’t somebody think of the children!? They deserve to grow up in a surveillance state!

What a complete load of horse shit. Show me crime statistics that clearly show that mass scanning of messages was the only way to detect a felony or reach a verdict of guilty.

E2E encryption is the public protection measure.

anyone who this is supposedly targeted at will just start encrypting their messages on their own so even if message is intercepted it cant be read without difficulty/reasonable time. I could do it even here: U2FsdGVkX1+w2vSFD+69kO38y4VaS7pIJlM9vam//gU= (passkey=test)(aes-256-cbc)
conveying information to large amounts of people this way is difficult, pretty much impossible if recipients are tech-illiterate. But if you REALLY have something you want to hide, you dont have to rely on communication services doing it for you. Only people who will suffer from this are the real targets: all of us.
If services start making rules that you cant do this one could probably even obfuscate that message has been encrypted by encrypting it further in some other way that makes it look like written text, even if its nonsense.
only reason they want to do this is mass surveillance. Before long eu could become like china and you have to be constantly afraid something you or someone you have had contact with says something that is considered wrongthink. All it takes is couple of elections where awful people get power.
And all that is just from the viewpoint that governments will abuse this. Criminals will find even more use for unencrypted communications.

The absolute state of bongs and their Orwellian shitscape nanny-state. When are they going to start tagging them with RFID because they can’t risk untagged citizens committing crimes?

Must be nice for them fitting 100% into the system.
