I'd love to see how they argue that in front of the Supreme Court. Remember there are more steps to a law being passed beyond getting signed

Two truths and a lie: This would instantly eliminate Imgur, Reddit, and Wikipedia. Feinstein is the wealthiest politician in history. 2+2=5.

The whole article is pointless. Create an OS to reduce reliance on big tech companies. So, Linux?
GyprockGypsy
No, more like Windows with real security features. I'm guessing a Linux base with Windows functionality.
Why is it pointless, it is an initiative to step away from data giants like Google. Sure we don't need a whole new os and distributions 1/2
Like ubuntu are already a good experience

They're currently not in compliance with EU data laws so they just block us. The irony.

Its not just that. They want to force a backdoor for the government to bypass that encryption. What all these corrupt old farts do not want
HedonistBeard
I'm assuming that if it ever passes the first thing the internet will do is find those back doors and use it to ruin those old farts.
Muffyns
Empty their bank accounts permanently
I'm assuming those old farts have stashed lots of money with foreign companies that do not have such backdoors
to admit is that creating such a backdoor creates a massive vulnerability. Every guy, wherever he is, who finds that backdoor can then use
it for whatever illegal shit he wants. The government has tried to enforce that stupid shit many times, experts have always spoken out
against it. Because it is just plain stupid. Now they try to pass it silently while we are all busy with corona

It could be WORSE than that, back doors don't just let people SEE in, it lets them access, alter or ADD data without the initial users 1/?

Theresa May tried something similar in the UK and the bitch had to have the real world explained to her. It went nowhere.
Funny thing is Linday Graham tried that shit a few years ago, and then backpedaled saying he realizes it is not that simple. But as you can

Reminder that this bill is much, much worse than just removing end to end encryption!
Reminder that they always make the bill "much much worse" so they can compromise it down to merely "terrifyingly bad".
hakunamatatamotherfucker
I think I'm not fighting this anymore. They don't realize that encryption is what keeps their dirt hidden. Wait for mails to flow.

The bill doesnt even mention encryption from what ive seen. This is a disinformation campaign. Asking us companies to comply with lawful
Interception standards is not the same thing as making encryption illegal
Which standards are those?
