In article <B6F1CF8B-E1CE-4EBA-A9C5-E473A7BC7C0A@mnot.net> you write: >So, it seems like (IANAL) one way to read the situation is that the government is currently trying to >get companies to forcefully take the expectation of privacy off the table for commonly used >communication tools. I don't think that's the issue here. The telcos have files full of plaintext location information. The question is who can look at them. >I wonder what the analysis is WRT back doors vs. "keep the plaintext" (what they currently seem to be >pursuing). The latter seems to sidestep the second test above... That's a whole different can of worms. Access to the contents of conversations has always required a warrant, and certain parts of law enforcement believe that they have the right to force everyone else to provide those contents in plaintext, regardless of what the laws of mathematics might say.
