in fact honest to God why don’t these stupid politicians just rewrite the bill to mandate that listening devices be installed in every persons home around the globe and be done with it.

it’s functionally equivalent to what they’re proposing by breaking encryption for messaging protocols that allow us to have private conversations across the globe, often even in the same bloody house!

do it and see what kind of kickback you get.

I really quite dare politicians to get this pushed through because I would love to watch the onslaught of lawsuits in class, action suits and riots and pushback from the global population as they realize that their lost freedoms have been all that stripped away from them – the freedom to even talk to each other!
