Worth considering that FBI's public critique of encryption is (has always
been) a cover for their cracking capablities.
This is standard disinformation for spies, natsec, budgets, lately for
the mushrooming, bloated cybersecurity industry.
Coming on strong for disinfo is capacious leaking, malware, ransomware,
election interference, foreign hacking, and seemingly unstoppable prattle
about press freedom.
Privacy and anonymity are the monsters of disinfo even as all the
advocates boost their income with warnings and letting their log files be
subpoened, hacked, siphoned, stolen, harvested, third partied with lousy
data protection, inept administrators, corruptible executives.
To be sure, the entire internet is a boondoggle and none of it is
trustworthy, but is gradually becoming as much of an uncontrollable
invention as the atomic bomb, both US creations, and both with a bevy of
orignal inventors apologizing for what they wrought, reaped rewards and
honors for, propose useless ways of correcting, bemoan futile
proliferation.
