yes, think about the children!

nobody thinks about the children that are literally starving every day or that are in social settings where they simply cannot succeed.

Let’s just treat everyone like disgusting criminals until THEY prove they are innocent by giving us access to everything they do.

The more I see, the more I want to literally dump all technology and go live off the grid.

Translation: The child porn industry needs to wait until we solve world hunger. Priorities, people!

The real translation is that nobody gives a fuck about the children but they use this as an excuse to peddle their bs backdoors.

You got that right—this is a bullshit back door. That's my favourite kind of back door. Because it does one thing incredibly well: it starves of oxygen the one remotely tractable argument politicians have found to break real E2E encryption with real, non-bullshit back doors.

With this technology in place, never again will the Government be able to wail "think of the children" when claiming E2E needs a back door in order to protect the the children.

Give me the bullshit back door any day.
