Title: [2016-05-16] Amendment To Ban End-to-End Encryption Passed By Hungarian Parliame
Post by: jdebunt on May 16, 2016, 09:14:04 AM
Now that the legislation of this amendment has passed in Parliament, end-to-end encryption is coming under severe pressure in Hungary. It is worth noting this amendment is a less severe version of the original draft, which would see end-to-end encryption users being jailed for using this method of communication. Additionally, developers will not need to install backdoors for government monitoring either. However, officials may ask developers to decrypt particular communications, which is a different means to the same end.
