EU 's Commission ’s Anti-Encryption Plans On The Ropes (again) After Rejection By The Dutch Gov’t from the maybe-don't-send-a-thug-out-to-do-diplomacy deplomacy.
Those pushing for encryption backdoors leveraged all the usual hot buttons: terrorism, drug trafficking, national security.
Dutch spooks warned their government that the latest proposal would threaten the cybersecurity of the country, putting national security at risk.
This is a warning that should resonate with other countries, too.
A new Commission will be in place by the end of the year and we can expect several of the new members will be just as desirous of breaking encryption as their predecessors.
