Corporations and companies have their own encryption for their high sensitive data that, believe me, you will have to go through an giant wall of lawyers tosuccessfully reach legally. So going agains encryption would be going agains corporations too. Same with VPNs. The things is why would they let corporations have keys and not to standard citizens. It’s a right. But there needs to me some transparent control. As an example, government have clues and you are suspect of murder and that there are leads at your home, to enter they would need a permission from the judge. I mean there needs to be a system that protect privacy but also can protect damage from people. I mean, there is bad people everywhere not just in governments and corporations.
You seriously think that they won’t take away the rights of actual people while upholding those of corporations? The same government that unilaterally raised the retirement age without consulting the people at all because industry lobbyists asked them to?
I mean that it will not be so easy and will have serios consequences because companies will need to do the same, in theory (I’m not saying it should ). At least people should fight for with that as one point. The issue as the post, if they start blocking Indiscriminately which is the case and my point will have serous consequences
We can hope, but it’s more likely they’ll be like, “hey, that’s an idea, let’s all do this!” The most likely thing they’ll do is absolutely nothing, though.
Idunno, they’ve passed some pretty major pro-consumer bills in major years…
I don’t trust them about most things, but when it comes to consumer issues and digital rights, both of which this is, they’re actually building a pretty impressive track record.

If you told me this time last year that France would be the European country to criminalise the use of encryption, I would’ve thought you crazy
French government is trying to kill one of the few successful European tech companies.
Man france is becoming a dumpster fire. Hopefully germany won’t copy them.
We will always prevail and find alternatives. Control entities can’t stop us.

Here’s hoping the EU comes down hard on this surveillance state fuckery!

Were it Russia or, say, North Korea that would have been normal but France?! How are European citizens going to tolerate this?
And most likely they use all of those encrypted providers too…
rules for thee but not for me
