Lawmakers from countries within the Five Eyes intelligence-sharing alliance have urged tech firms to develop backdoors that allows them to access encrypted messages.
Ministers from the U.S., U.K., Canada, Australia and New Zealand published a statement Sunday calling on the tech industry to develop a solution that enabled law enforcement to access tightly encrypted messages. While citizens benefit from additional privacy, law enforcement agencies see end-to-end encryption as a barrier to their investigations and have been calling on tech companies to introduce backdoors that would give law enforcement agencies access.
Although the nations did concede that some forms of encryption "play a crucial role in protecting personal data, privacy, intellectual property, trade secrets and cyber security."
Sam_L_Shead If you put all the backdoor keys in one place - or even several places - what's gonna happen...?
they need to do their jobs and get ahead of the industry. they just don't want to. they're too lazy and want industry to hand over the keys instead. noThanks
