Daily reminder that it is completely possible and reasonable to insert entirely secure backdoors into encryption that can be used only by the authorities in order to prevent terrorism and fight child pornography.
It's called asymmetric backdoor and it's perfectly safe by definition, don't fall for the "b-but that will be used by hackers and to spy on us" meme.

You're from the UK, aren't you?
You can tell these innate cucks

I know this is bait, but I really hope nobody believes this.

GG.
Snowden
Few days ago 99 tools leaked from NSA for "secure backdoors".
It is like you want everybody to know everything. Like comunism, but on internet. You fools.
So only the perverts and pedophiles working for the authorities get access to your private photos.
It's fine, right? It's only a few people sharing lewd pics with co-workers and so on. Perhaps also some CP sharing circles, it's not like they will post them on Cred Forums or something. They want to keep their jobs and their free source of naked pics.
Is your post even bait anymore at this point?
In any case here's your (You), and a complimentary die shot inside that particular infamous white elephant.
Naturally, it sucked. What one can invent, another can discover. I wouldn't put your faith in whiteboxes either.
You act like I want the authorities to be able to do that
Well, what ARE you trying to hide?
>FBI can't even keep their shit safe
>Don't worry about it guys
Hello Mr NSA agent.
>le botnet maymay
Just because I don't have anything illegal doesn't mean I'm not trying to hide anything
Actually that's exactly how it already works. Well, apart from the "fighting terrorists" meme.
So if the police had a warrant, you wouldn't mind handing all your data in plaintext form to them?
If they had a warrant then it's not like I have a choice
>Filename
Very subtle op, you almost did't show any signs at all.
Reading that, it looks like there is still a key for the backdoor. Meaning if that key was leaked EVERYONE would be fucked. Trusting the government to not lose that key is a hilarious notion at best.
>It's called asymmetric backdoor and it's perfectly safe by definition, don't fall for the "b-but that will be used by hackers and to spy on us" meme.
The Chinese communist party approves of this message and the described methods!
Nice bait NSA, now fuck off
Then what's your problem with asymmetric backdoors? The whole point is using them only when a warrant entails.
>the government is too incompetent to keep a key
>the government is competent enough to spy on us and plot against our freedoms
I hope you're just pretending to be retarded.
>make master key for world's locks
>"it's secure because only we can use it!"
>key leaks
>everyone can use it
This applies to any form of backdoor because the access method itself is the key.
Lmfao are we living on the same planet? The American government is huge incompetent. There are a lot of disjointed sections who all act in their own best interest. It's all run by just people. And people are what will lose the key, have a hacked email, etc.
If you think having a single key to access everything that the government holds is a good idea, you should literally (not metaphorically) kill yourself.
>the government is competent enough to spy on us
Except they had their spying programs leaked to the world by a 29 year old contractor. If they can't stop a leak that big by one man, how exactly could they stop a potentially nation-state sponsored attack to get said key?

Child pornography is a right.
>this is what encryptards actually believe
This requires banning non-backdoored encryption methods which means that I could get you thrown in jail by sending you a large random file per mail.
You wouldn't be able to prove that it isn't an encrypted message because the output of a good encryption mechanism is indistinguishable from random data if you don't have the key.
>suddenly I can't e-mail large random files
Geez, that's a massive deal breaker!
the point is you can set a trap for whoever you want, just make something that will download random files to the person machine
Well, right now you can just make something that will download random child porn, so nothing changes.
