Responding to various parts of the thread: Q: What is the difference between filtering and censorship? A: The person who decides to impose it. Filtering is actually an essential tool for use of the modern Internet. Without filtering there is no mechanism to control abuse. Today I received five junk calls. The time is rapidly approaching when I get rid of the telephone line completely. There is simply too much spam. The fact that the Russian Business Network has put a machine on the net does not mean that any machine I own need be able to connect to it. I don't want their IP address to be reachable, I don't want their DNS names to resolve. So the ability to perform filtering is an essential part of every end-to-end encryption mechanism. But giving control over that filtering to the government is not. When I was at university there was a club for thugs who went round smashing up restaurants for fun. One of the members of that club is now the UK Prime Minister. I am damned if I am going to let the likes of him decide what anyone can access. The question is who has control and who is empowered. I am firmly of the opinion that ubiquitous end-to-end encryption is only viable if it is accompanied by a robust and easy to use mechanism that allows for a gap in the stack. If I publish a key for phill@hallambaker.com it will be the key of a service in the cloud that performs anti-malware filtering. Use of the end-to-end key will be reserved to people who are expressly authorized to use it.
