Not even the United States is as determined to become a third-wonld shithole as the UK is.
I don’t get it - where did all these idiots come from in the western developed worlds? It’s like half have forgotten history, and are hell bent on sending us into this fascist dystopia where we’ve forgotten that freedom comes with a price. Nobody likes the darker side of the internet, but punishing regular users and businesses isn’t the answer. Everyone loves to pick on the USA, and we deserve it, but it’s happening seemingly everywhere.
Where there is money to be made, and influence to be pedaled, Capitalism will find the person to do it for them. If you are doing it because you are evil you are a conservative, if you are doing it because you think you are actually helping the children, you are a liberal. But the outcomes are the same either way.
Cant you just make a keyboard app that encrypts it for the recipient while you type it? Will they even ban that?
There are logistical problems with that. Such as how you plan to get the key out to recipients.
When someone wants to start a conversation they send their public key unencrypted (no need for it to be encrypted) and then you send your public key It will be one more message but the keyboard could have some sort of “profiles” for every persons public key, that you could select (This is just an idea, I have no coding experience)
Okay, but how do you then make sure that key isn’t intercepted? Anyone who has the key can read your messages
They are talking about asymmetric encryption which has a keypair, private key (kept secret only by the owner) and a public key that is used by everyone that would send them a message. You can’t decrypt the message with the public key when it is encrypted using the public key, you must use the private key to decrypt it.
