I like how the website doesn’t even work anymore.
seems to work fine
Let me guess, you got the iWarning? lol
Bad article, but the point does stand: breaking encryption is stupid, and csam is just an excuse, nothing more, no politician gives a shit about kids
How fucking distasteful is that cover of the article
The images of the kid from E.T.?
Wtf I hadn't even noticed it 😡
This was, logically, a very badly written article. If anything, reading this article steers me towards breaking encryption, a position I would never take.
Please explain
The deal is:
When CSAM is a thing, a child has already been violated.
When conversation is being controlled, government or whoever reads all of your messages.
It means cops can CSAM you, and you can do nothing since cops are “protected people”
