FBI: End-to-End Encryption Is an Infectious Problem

Just in case there were any lingering doubts about U.S. law enforcement's stance on end-to-end encryption, which prevents information from being read by anyone but its intended recipient, FBI executive assistant director Amy Hess told the Wall Street Journal this week that its use "is a problem that infects law enforcement and the intelligence community more and more so every day."

The quote was published in a piece about efforts from the UK, Australia and India to undermine end-to-end encryption. All three countries have passed or proposed legislation that compels tech companies to supply certain information to government agencies. The laws vary in their specifics, including restrictions on to what information law enforcement can request access, but the gist is that they don't want any data to be completely inaccessible.

      You beat me to it. But my Google translation is different. It thought it was just Latin, for one thing. Can we get more meaning by translating again and again and amalgamating the isolated bits that make sense?

        I did a sentence at a time and auto-detected the language. I think it is mostly a mess, for one thing it has "lorem ipsum dolor" scattered through it.
