The same FBI that keeps telling Congress end to end encryption needs to have legally mandated back doors in it?

"our backdoors, not theirs"

(of course, they always fail to acknowledge the simple fact that "ours" becomes "everybody's")

They want access, they just don't want china to have access. Of course, when you add a backdoor it's best to assume everyone will use it sooner or later.

☝️
If China’s access to your data were actually a high priority to the US security state, then they wouldn’t be installing these back doors. They’re much more interested in 1) accessing your data and 2) convincing you that China is your enemy.

The US security state isn’t interested your security, they’re interested in what the capitalists are interested in: imperialism and screwing over the working class.
