[SWE] Swedish government wants a back door in Signal
Den krypterade meddelandeappen Signal växer – nu använder till och med Försvarsmakten appen. Men regeringen vill tvinga bolaget att införa en teknisk bakdörr åt Polisen och Säpo. – Om det blir verklighet så lämnar vi Sverige, säger Signals chef Meredith Whittaker, i en exklusiv intervju med SVT.
Swedish government wants a back door in signal for police and 'Säpo' (Swedish federation that checks for spies)
Let's say that this becomes a law and Signal decides to withdraw from Sweden as they clearly state that they won't implement a back door; would a citizen within the country still be able to use and access Signals services? Assuming that google play services probably would remove the Signal app within Sweden (which I also don't use)
I just want the government to go f*ck themselves, y'know?
You're viewing a single thread.
"Every house should break open a wall and build a door only to be used by the police whenever they want to. It will only be used for your protection ;)"
With a universal key to every single door that is easily copyable and sharable, but not really possible to know if one bad cop decides to share it for $$$$
A rep for the Centerparti literally used this argument on the news today, they are very against it. It is just a proposal at the moment, even the military passovely criticized it as they use Signal for communication.
Hopefully that's enough for it not to pass but you never know. If it passes that's a new low.
That's good to hear.
Exactly. We have to think about the children..
Its jot the parents responsibility to be apart of their kids lives and bring them up properly. That responsibility have been pushed onto the governments so that they can leverage it against peoples right to privacy
After the ability to bring them up got taken away by the big capital.
This is Sweden, they're used to the government wiping their assets.
Best comment.
