Is France being shitty? I've been AFK for a bit, not sure what I missed.

Depend if you compare to USA ,France is awesome. If you compare to Sweden not so much

Please, no. I need to believe there’s still a place where things aren’t worsening.

I mean they just arrested the lead Telegram dev and keep talking about trying to ban all encryption

[–] [email protected] 50 points 2 weeks ago

The arrest is because telegram is not encrypted by default, has access to everything, and still doesn't remove illegal stuff from their platform.

But weakening or interdicting of encryption has been on the playbook of authoritarians for a long time now.
