Home routing and encryption technologies are making lawful interception harder, Europol warns

  • Home routing and encryption technologies are making lawful interception harder for Europol
  • PET-enabled home routing allows for secure communication, hindering law enforcement’s ability to intercept and monitor communications
  • Europol suggests solutions such as disabling PET technologies and implementing cross-border interception standards to address the issue.

Can I activate home routing and PET on my phone? Or do I need to get a special SIM card for that? I’m confused about how this works.

LMAO, the only way you’re getting my OpenWRT router running FOSS U-Boot is by prying it from my cold, dead hands.

…and even then, good luck! Because I will have glued it to my cold, dead hands.

I don’t feel that intercepting traffic should ever be considered lawful.

If you need evidence, get a warrant, and take the equipment.

Many people sincerely believe rules are a big thing and such organizations don’t violate those regularly. Even in the EU. Even when nobody will know.

That’s how they used to do it, get a warrant, and wiretap landlines.

Except even back then the FBI spied on whoever they wanted, like Martin Luther King and the civil rights organizers. Always has been this way

Because you know that’s what it’s really about, not “lawful interception”. Fuck them.

chaospatterns ,

For those who aren’t aware. This is talking about when cell phones roam into other networks, they now encrypt the traffic back to the home provider which means law enforcement struggle to tap it (legally or illegally).

PET is privacy enhancing technologies

Hold on while I dig out the world’s smallest violin for them.

Delusional ,

Never heard of Europol. Is that just interpol but only for Europe?

Persen ,

Pretty much.

Neon ,

I get that that’s bad and that shouldn’t be.

But there just have been too many cases of unlawful interception (NSA and Criminal). So I personally don’t think we should move back away from encryption

I fixed the bulleted.

  • Home routing and encryption technologies are making lawful interception spying on innocent civilians harder for Europol
  • PET-enabled home routing allows for secure communication, hindering preventing law enforcement’s ability to intercept and monitor spy on the communications of innocent civilians
  • Europol suggests solutions such as disabling PET technologies and implementing cross-border interception standards to address the issue of Europol not knowing how to do their jobs without resorting to Orwellian dystopian techniques
  • PET technologies does exactly what it’s intended to do–protect the innocent civilian from the prying eyes of the not innocent bodies that are hellbent on eroding privacy and security

Good. Fk off governments.

Good! The government has no business in peoples’ homes.

Privacy Enhancing Technologies. Some obvious things giving anonymity and plausible deniability but also zero-knowledge proofs and such.

justsomeguy ,

Privacy Enhancing Technologies. A blanket term for anything protecting your identity (Onion, VPN, etc.) I feel like the people asking for this either have a very limited technical understanding of it or completely different motives. You can’t ban encryption. What they could do is ban VPN services from officially operating or certain protocols but that would mostly hit your regular user.

piyuv ,

So pet-enabled routers = routers with built in vpn support?

PET technologies = Privacy Enhancing Technologies technologies
