End to end encryption is essential for private and secure communication of any form.

Unfortunately it seems our government still needs more pressure to understand that.

The insane thing about these laws are that the type of people they want to target will find a way to circumvent the laws.

The very individuals they want to target will just be driven further underground at the expense of the privacy and security of everyone.
