- 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.
Warning: non-transparent walls, window blinds and door locks prevent lawful interception and surveillance - how are the authorities supposed to know you’re not doing something naughty in there?
Clothing hides weapons! So do fat folds. Kill all the fat people and go naked for a crime free world in the new authoritarian bridge between Nazis and Stalinists for a wonderful Europe.
There are places a skinny naked person can hide things. What do we do about that?
Mandatory random cavity searches.
It’s the only way to keep society safe!
Kill them all. If your butt cheeks touch in the middle you get the antisemitic/Palestinian treatment. Would you like to die by rocket, bomb, on the hood of a car, as a joke, career suicide, anonymous mass grave, student failure with no future, self emulation, militant untrained police, starvation, Kremlin backed Right faction first world extremist regime mob of fucktards, or randomly one of the above? Heil Europe!
I think they meant inside

Humans are actually supposed to do naughty things. Otherwise they’d be worried about demography
Lol. Uh, good?
Came here to pose exactly this. While I support proper and ethical law enforcement, the Snowden leak clearly showed just how unethical my own government is willing to be to enforce laws. So whatever tools I have at my disposal to prevent unlawful search and seizure, I will use them.
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.
Europol is merely a clearing house, standards process and coordinating agency for how national police forces work together across the EU states. It has very, very little power. Unfortunately.
based on this article, i would say it’s fortunate that they have very little power
You’re assuming the national services are better, I suppose. In my experience it’s been the EU who has struck a better balance between privacy and investigative powers than the crap they’re pushing for nationally.
Breaking encryption is never something you do for the right reasons.
Cracking Enigma was something that needed to been done.
Alright I’ll give you that
Everybody vote for this guy for president.
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!
I fixed the bulleted.

Good! The government has no business in peoples’ homes.
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
AWWWWW, POOR FASCISTS CAN’T HACK OUR DEVICES
Because you know that’s what it’s really about, not “lawful interception”. Fuck them.
One of these guys went on to be a very wholesome beloved actor.
And the other…I assume is still alive.
The other one is Keanu something. He was in a terrible film about a man falling down some stairs, I think.
Hold on while I dig out the world’s smallest violin for them.
Think of the children!
I don’t feel that intercepting traffic should ever be considered lawful.
If you need evidence, get a warrant, and take the equipment.
Many people sincerely believe rules are a big thing and such organizations don’t violate those regularly. Even in the EU. Even when nobody will know.
That’s how they used to do it, get a warrant, and wiretap landlines.
Except even back then the FBI spied on whoever they wanted, like Martin Luther King and the civil rights organizers. Always has been this way
Good. Fk off governments.
Tough. Shit.
