I don't know brazilian law, but in my country (Sweden. I'm ashamed...) the Military office for Radio Communications (FRA) is recording all data crossing the border (which of course includes the data of all citizens, since the internet is borderless).

They certainly do not have evidence that every citizen and every foreigner (total 7 billion people) is a pedophile, terrorist or even a jaywalker.

I for one have lost any faith in governance in the information age, and will happily encrypt my communication. If I can sabotage for the organisations spying on me, that is a net win.

Well, as far the it's publicly known, Brazil does not monitor data that crosses its border, nor has implanted capacity to do so.

What I don't understand is why you bring that point to a discussion about WatsApp hiding information about an specific crime.

The discussion turned into what rights a government should be able to take, and that is what I tried to reply to.
