Signal lÀmnar Sverige om regeringens förslag pÄ datalagring klubbas
www.svt.se
Den krypterade meddelandeappen Signal vĂ€xer – nu anvĂ€nder till och med Försvarsmakten appen. Men regeringen vill tvinga bolaget att införa en teknisk bakdörr Ă„t Polisen och SĂ€po. – Om det blir verklighet sĂ„ lĂ€mnar vi Sverige, sĂ€ger Signals chef Meredith Whittaker, i en exklusiv intervju med SVT.

Swedish government wants a back door in signal for police and ‘SĂ€po’ (Swedish federation that checks for spies)

Let’s say that this becomes a law and Signal decides to withdraw from Sweden as they clearly state that they won’t implement a back door; would a citizen within the country still be able to use and access Signals services? Assuming that google play services probably would remove the Signal app within Sweden (which I also don’t use)

I just want the government to go f*ck themselves, y’know?

    A rep for the Centerparti literally used this argument on the news today, they are very against it. It is just a proposal at the moment, even the military passovely criticized it as they use Signal for communication.

    Hopefully that’s enough for it not to pass but you never know. If it passes that’s a new low.
