Australia passes controversial law on encryption

Nov, 13, 2023 Hi-network.com
Australia has passed the controversialAssistance and Access Bill, designed to compel technology companies to allow law enforcement agencies access to encrypted messages. According to the Guardian, the law intends to 'co-opt technology companies, device manufacturers and service providers into building the functionality needed for police to do their spying' and 'give to Australian agencies the ability to install key logging software to enable them to see, keystroke by keystroke, what users type into a message'. The law was adopted despite strong criticism from civil society organisations and leading tech companies, such as Apple, Cisco, Mozilla, Google, and Facebook.
