- Home routing and encryption technologies are making lawful interception harder for Europol
- PET-enabled home routing allows for secure communication, hindering law enforcement’s ability to intercept and monitor communications
- Europol suggests solutions such as disabling PET technologies and implementing cross-border interception standards to address the issue.
lawful interception
Idk bout that. Usually you get a warrant for wiretapping and then you pay someone to install it. If they are trying to break encryption or identifying users, that means they inherently are doing something the law does not favor.
Let’s also acknowledge that if encryption is bad because it cannot be broken, that means encryption is pretty good at what it should do.
Breaking encryption is never something you do for the right reasons.

DeCSS.

Uhhh ransomware?
I read this the other day… the issue they face is on the warrant side, cross border investigations have a 120 day lead time. So instead of actually integrating police and making sure time sensitive investigations get treated as such… They whine about PET.
EuroPol seems to be something like the FBI… who operate across all US states. But in the EU the countries are still very separate and require such ridiculous things as proof and due process. And that’s fine… It just needs to be sped up.

I mean really…who else are you going to vote for? Spiderman? Yeah,I would too, but we have a two term limit!
Oh my! Encryption makes it harder to snoop uninvited into things that should not concern them in the first place! Shocking!
Oh no… Anyway
For those who aren’t aware. This is talking about when cell phones roam into other networks, they now encrypt the traffic back to the home provider which means law enforcement struggle to tap it (legally or illegally).
PET is privacy enhancing technologies
Good! The government has no business in peoples’ homes.
Hold on while I dig out the world’s smallest violin for them.
Think of the children!
Good. Fk off governments.
I get that that’s bad and that shouldn’t be.
But there just have been too many cases of unlawful interception (NSA and Criminal). So I personally don’t think we should move back away from encryption
Tough. Shit.
LMAO, the only way you’re getting my OpenWRT router running FOSS U-Boot is by prying it from my cold, dead hands.
…and even then, good luck! Because I will have glued it to my cold, dead hands.

Good. ‘Lawful’ interception is total nonsense. They’d have a camera up everyone’s ass if they could.
As it is our TVs bloody listen to us…1984 is here.
That’s going to be a recurring theme. Law enforcement starts scanning one thing, businesses, criminals and citizens start using something else. They’ll have to forbid everything that’s not open, but by then legal businesses stop using the net because all their secrets get stolen.
