Re:The EARN IT act is an attack on end-to-end encryption by pyuser583 on Saturday March 07, 2020 @12:21AM (#22509917)
If end to end encryption became the norm, people would die as a result. Children would be raped, radical groups would spread, etc.

It’s still a good thing. But let’s not pretend there’s no cost.

Freedoms have a price, and that price is often the inability of the state to protect us from malevolent members of society.

That true for guns, and it’s true for encryption.

There’s shared ground between the NRA and EFF.

I just wish more conservative, law-and-order types would realize that.
