Theresa May in Davos: "No one wants to be known as “the terrorists’ platform” or the first choice app for paedophiles"

She seems to think that all the people who use encrypted services every day for completely legal purposes will just forget this and start believing the government line?

Is she mad? Does she not think that maybe the services she is attempting to rubbish might also fight back? They're entitled to at this point and given the fact that they're providing services that millions use every day I'd say they've got a pretty good audience to speak to.

Fuck Theresa May, fuck her technological illiteracy and her pearl clutching nonsense. Fight terror and crime in the traditional way, attacking mainstream messaging services etc. will very likely result in the UK gov coming away looking even more stupid than it does at present.
