    How the fuck these morons get to chief position? The whole point of a proper end-to-end encryption is that there isn’t a way to “unlock it” so that it can’t be abused.

      Simple, the position doesn’t require technical insight. At all. It should, but it doesn’t.

      Idiots failing upwards. A big problem with the current EU setup is that it’s basically all diplomats, and a lot of political administrations use diplomacy as a dumping ground for the people who they want to get rid of because they’re idiots, but can’t because they are too connected.

      Also see the person responsible for the current state of the German army become Commission President.

      But it’s not unique to the EU, Mark Rutte is NATO chief now.

    In a digital environment, the police needed to be able to decode these messages to fight crime, she added. “You will not be able to enforce democracy [without it].”

    You did it to yourself by conducing mass surveillance and alienating people from caring about greater good.

    Sorry Catherine, you need to learn how to do your job without having everyone’s personal lives, private conversations and private details indexed at your fingertips in some government database. And she’s Belgian, like the guys who proposed chat control the last time around. What the hell is going on with Belgium trying to turn the EU into a surveillance state? Could you guys please not ?

    No, that’s the responsibility of the NSA or whatever their equivalent in other countries is.
