That's f*cked up. Sure being able to access all messages at all times will make things easier to fight SOME aspects of crime, but that is a huge sacrifice to give up my own privacy. What is that gonna lead to? The government putting mic's & cameras in every flat and house, because "terrorists" don't use the internet anymore? The state eliminating people who criticize its politics? To scutinize the political opposition? Seems like a good way to start a dictatorship

In the most literal way.

Remember when the Egyptian government shut down facebook so the people protesting against dictatorship could no longer organize themselves, and they called them terrorists?

When adults say thinks like this it really highlights that they have absolutely no comprehension of what the younger generations are up to/what modern technology is.

I'm getting sick of all these invasions of privacy in the name of "terrorism"

I have the utmost sympathy for the victims of terrorism but invading the privacy of the masses is NOT the way it should be handled.

Terrorism should be dealt with institutionally at borders, immigration and gun laws. Not by treating normal citizens as threats.

Completely.

All these moves being made in the name of counter-terrorism handily also leave the masses who you're sh*tting on from a great height more completely surveilled, and thereby more controllable.

Need more of this sh*t to come out before the election.

On one hand I'm melting down because that'd make it a lot less convenient to speak to people, but if stopping millions of people from contacting each other through those apps and forcing them to use non-encrypted means stopping a terrorist attack then it's all worth it :ohno:

Idk if someone has said this already cause i cba going through the pages but, he wants to do away with all encryption on everything. So that encludes bank websites, email etc. So when you put in your pw for your bank people that can get access can see it, and emails will be able to be seen in plain text.

This is bad and about much more than messaging apps :emma: its ridiculous :smh:

Are you kidding? Why don't we shut down the whole internet and shut down all phone connections so the terrorists have to send messages via owl? 

 

Oh yeah, this will definitely work. It's totally not a stupid idea that will change nothing.
