    The only thing is that corporations need encryption and I don’t think they want to disobey their corporate masters.

      Oh that’s easy. Encryption is only legal when communicating with a business that is registered with the IRS and not when doing peer to peer. There, we’ve hopelessly broken digital privacy while letting the US government determine who gets to exist online.

        Conservatives not only aren’t fans of the IRS, they want to slash its budget. So that may not be what they want either.

        Honestly if it meant everyone got kicked offline I might take that exchange. Turns out access to the entirety of human information and misinformation is a pretty good way to go extinct (at least at the rate we are going).
