Backdoor access means that tech companies would create a way for government authorities to bypass encryption, allowing them to access private communications for surveillance and investigation. Proponents argue that it helps law enforcement and intelligence agencies prevent terrorism and criminal activities by providing necessary access to information. Opponents argue that it compromises user privacy, weakens overall security, and could be exploited by malicious actors.

No, the government should have their own tech to do so or give tech companies the option and negotiate a deal with tech companies so that they are fairly compensated.

Yes, but access should only be granted in the case of emergencies (it should not be always accessible)
@9R5K36H6 days6D
No. If politicians were intelligent enough to understand cybersecurity risks, they would work in cybersecurity, and not in politics.

No, I think a warrant should be provided to access encrypted communications if there is proven evidence of malicious intent.
