@jpaskaruk @MindOfJoe I don't know that I'd agree with that... mostly because governments are already trying to wreck or outlaw encryption here and there. I feel like that's a lost battle for them, for the most part - in that I don't think it's flown under the radar at all for them.

@kinetix @MindOfJoe Ahh, but why don't they seem to care, when techbros are generally refusing to hand over the info?

Answer: Because they can just buy it from the data brokers. They don't need to break encryption as long as people are using big tech, because the phone collects all the important stuff, and it's available at bargain basement prices, compared to the political capital of doing the legal necessaries.

If we form a resistance movement and stop using anything from SV, they will very quickly do the formalities.
