Comment on Florida’s New Social Media Bill Says the Quiet Part Out Loud and Demands an Encryption Backdoor

Social media apps should not be E2E encrypted, especially under the age of 18. Chat apps on the other hand should be completely E2E encrypted. We need to have a good balance between safety and privacy, and this is the only decent way.
Stupid people argue for backdoors and stupid people argue for full encryption. It’s the correct balance that’s far more important and will make everybody happy.

There is no safety without the guarantee of privacy. One is fundamental to the other.

Full encryption means privacy. From everyone. For everyone. Please explain to me why that should not be given to minors?
In my view, protecting children online is not inherently a tech problem. It’s a part of parenting.

There’s too many stupid parents.

That’s an education problem, not a privacy issue. Children also deserve privacy, especially when they have awful and potentially abusive parents.

Stupid, lazy, overworked, underskilled - it must have been easier to raise us who are adults now, pre Internet, than it is to raise our kids today. And I repeat, tech is not the solution.
