Looks like a good time to move to the EU... 😬
They're also leading the race to making encryption illegal, so...
That's dumb and will never happen
In the US there was a period of time where it was illegal to export encryption above a certain level, so in a way it has already happened. Dumb has never stopped governments before.
Friend of mine back then bought the T-shirt 😁
How would ssl work if you ban encryption?
There was a proposal to have webbrowsers have to accept government certificates. Consequently they could man-in-the-middle/take over domains.
You could argue it's no different from another central authority that can issue trusted certificates. But it's government's rather than independent orgs.
I mean... they literally try to fuck up the internet every few years. Eventually they'll get someth8ng through.
Nah, that's UK.
Are you sure about that? The UK is doing dumb stuff no doubt, but its mostly sound and fury of a dying government with no chance of actually being implemented.
