      Signal, Tuta, Proton. And that Apple bullshit.

      This push to know everything about everyone is outrageous, expected, and depressing.

          So then you're in favor of these government backdoors? Because your comment suggests the opposite.

          No, I don't agree that a want of privacy is an American thing.

            So you misread my comment but you're one of those types who can't admit when they're wrong. I'd say it's our little secret but I see someone else pointed it out too.

              Yup, they are trying to put a backdoor into signal, even though their military advised against it.

                  Telling someone who says government access will be used to spy on citizens but will be useless for combating serious crime that they want telescreens doesn't make any sense. Either you don't know what a telescreen is, you have poor reading comprehension, or you're a fairly clever troll. Maybe some of all the above.

                      I'm telling someone who says that a want for uncompromising privacy is a US thing that it's not, and that these compromises they speak of would be akin to telescreens if applied to a non-digital situation.

                        But their comment doesn't say or suggest that.

                        And they don't say anything about the compromises except that they'd be used for spying on citizenry.

                        This isn't my fight, I saw you were confused and thought I'd help. My mistake, you really are one of those double down or die types.

                          Sweden wants a backdoor. I hope that idiocy is shot down fast.

                              Ah, I heard about that. I recognized Proton’s and Apple’s self-inflicted bullshit, so I was afraid that Signal might have done something stupid to themselves as well

                                Wow indeed. We're only a few comments deep, so you can see the original comment. This one:

                                Continuing the analogy, government agencies can absolutely eavesdrop on in-person conversations unless you expend significant resources to prevent it. This is exactly what I believe will happen - organized crime will develop alternate methods the government can't access while these backdoors are used to monitor less advanced criminals and normal people.

                                I challenge you to show where it suggests a "want for uncompromising privacy is a US only thing." Then point out where they show support for government access to communications.

                                  Backdoors for 'good guys' don't exist—this is a shortcut to mass exploitation.

                                      You're responding to a follow-up comment from a different user who is disagreeing with the first comment as if they're the author of the original comment and their clear dissent is actually them agreeing with themselves somehow. Of course, you're arguing with anyone who points out you're confused.

                                      Literal fucking insanity, mate.

                                        TSA officers steal from passengers

                                        This may seem unrelated but it gives a real life physical example on exactly why backdoors shouldn't exist.

                                        First off, fuck the NY post.

                                        Secondly, no, it IS unrelated. An issue with the TSA is not an example of a backdoor. Both are bad things, but it ends there.

                                        A law implementing a back door would be a far more ubiquitous concern than some one off sticky fingers in Florida.

                                        Did the tsa use a backdoor to find out what people had in order to steal it? No. How tf is this dumb take supported.

                                          The little red locks on luggage have a backdoor for the TSA, so yes, they literally used a backdoor to find out what people had and steal it. The reason I brought it up is because people sometimes have a hard time realizing the severity of something unless it's grounded in the real physical world.

                                          Also, chill the f out, man. Sheesh.
