France & Germany Banning Encryption
These are dangerous times we are living in, politicians are so crazy that they want to ban math, and free speech essentially. That is what is going down.
I just stumbled across this article:
https://techcrunch.com/2016/08/24/encryption-under-fire-in-europe-as-france-and-germany-call-for-decrypt-law/
So french and german politicians are trying to do the impossible. A grab of power? Perhaps, most likely.
How will this be enforced? (My theory)
- New Gestapo-style secret police monitoring your internet connection and whenever you use an encryption software, thugs will knock on your door
- Government will force you to install a malware on your PC that will detect encryption patterns and sends police to your house if you are found to encrypt
- Encryption snitches, your neighbor will receive 500$ every time he catches you encrypting and reports you to police
You might think these are orwellian tools, but we live in an orwellian world ,so don't underestimate the powerhungry-ness of the government! Sad times for Europe, liberty is falling!
They tried destroying the entire internet with SOPA and PIPA, i'm not surprised they're starting small.
But it will escalate. Modern democracy is like trey invent a bill and they push it until it doesnt become law. If it gets downvoted 50 times, they push it for 51th time until the public breaks and the law passes.
