Thinking about governments requiring encryption backdoors. The UK with Apple last week. Sweden here with Signal (potentially). Etc etc.

As ever, there are arguments each way. Even if you’re pro encryption, you have to grant that.

The pendulum is clearly swinging into the Misuse of Powers territory (to put it mildly). Anyone with even half an ounce of sense would be hitting pause on the Lets Empower the Authorities Further button. Doesn’t seem hard.
