Η government of Australia pioneers and wants to be "your backdoor man" (stolen by Led Zeppelin).
While the rest of the world tries and repeatedly succeeds in defeating the impending legislative threats to end-to-end encryption, Australian MPs from both major parties rushed to vote on them, deliberately without debate, in time for Christmas. 
A big ZETA to the honest politicians, and the unruly police!
It is probably unnecessary to describe the problems that such a short-sighted law will bring.
Only a politician with a radish IQ should believe that creating a backdoor in encryption means that only the government can be "your backdoor man".
Of course, we continue to think of better methods for keeping our data safe as we continue to devise ways to circumvent security. Then we again try to cover detours with more security layers. But the struggle of all those involved is going for a walk if a government votes on backdoor use.
We have all heard the arguments against terrorism and how the security services want to strengthen our systems. You may also know the cliché that justifies the disclosure of private data by claiming that "if we save even one life, it is worth it".
So let us ban all cars, trucks and airplanes, trains and boats. Let's remove the stairs from the buildings, because any kind of construction or machinery seems to be dangerous. Banning factories. Fishing, sport is prohibited. It is forbidden to go out on a sunny day. If we can save a life, it's worth it, right?
Because I digress though, the Australian government isn't banning anything: it's just allowing encryption to be broken in name the fight against terrorism.
So let's limit ourselves to cracking.
Perhaps the US authorities could consider breaking the blockchain to detect IDs from terrorism-related Bitcoin accounts. Or let the intelligence services break down communications systems so they can control everything.
Or better yet, let's get rid of security altogether. Why should anyone try? At this point the codes accesss of the type password1234 make sense!
Shame….

He did to the author of the text!
The world is clear that it has already gone to an overpopulation of everything, having passed the stage of creating artificial situations of tension and hatred between the peoples, the neighbors, the families.
And since this artificially created intensity has achieved its purpose, the time has come for the policing of everything.
In the name of… democracy of course but also… security.
On the other hand, all the phobics, the cowards, the greedy, loot and do not even take a bite out and lose their cell phones with messengers and apps, leaving in their fate fragmented groups across Europe (Catalonia, France, Italy and maybe Britain) trying to pull the snake out of the hole. To discard the so-called NTP (New Order of Things), without realizing or without wanting to realize that individual reactions do not bring Spring.
What are we waiting for "tomorrow"?
Only chaos. Chaos that will occur when the zodiacs (cowards, etc.) lose what they still have. And then it will be the supreme victory of the so-called… democracy, since it will also put the armies on the road (in the name of course… security…).
Is there a solution to all this distorted and self-sustaining reduction - deprivation of democratic freedoms?
Clearly there is enough:
a) make it clear to everyone that "a cuckoo does not bring spring"
b) stop everyone from fearing that they will lose the material (still)
c) to think, if not their own, the murderers, the future of their children and to decide not to leave chaos as a legacy to future generations
d) to oppose ALL against ALL the corrupt. policies. That is, against those who clearly unionize and servilely express the interests of an elite that, in the final analysis, should not breathe a single mgr of air from this planet.
