What would happen if Apple or Samsung started selling cell phones that encrypted voice communications end-to-end and prevented any kind of intercepting? Would the government just ban them?
We'd love it if more interested folks got involved.
"Using encryption, ciphers and peer to peer messaging, Redact sends heavily encrypted messages from one phone to another without passing through any central servers. Messages you have sent or received can be redacted from both handsets at the touch of a button with no method of recovery."
The only way the government is going to be able to snoop in on everyone's traffic is to make the use of cryptography illegal. I don't see how that can work, either, since it's sort of necessary for commercial transactions.
