Ban encryption.... hmm, that's certainly one way to get rid of cryptocurrency and solve those pesky ransomware attacks. Good! I didn't read past the title, so I may be wrong about the actual contents of the article.


It has absolutely nothing to do with cryptocurrency.

And it's not exactly a ban either. It's about a mandatory backdoor in encrypted communication.

Not that makes it any less bad but it's important to clarify. The title is not clear about this.


> I didn't read past the title

Then maybe you should?


It would be more appealing if the title was not so alarmist. "Outlaw encryption" Really?
