    We really need some kind of FOSS encryption service that can’t just be compromised like that.

    🤔 Do you think they could force devs to fork over private keys to blockchains like Bitcoin?

        I know. I am worried that the UK government could force devs to hand over the private keys to those end-to-end encryption apps under this new law.

        I would hope no corporation would actually obey something so insane.

          A good messaging application won’t have keys they can hand over. It should be Foss and have the keys stored by the user
