    What are the governments around the world afraid of? Always so quick to go for overly invasive privacy laws. They should be afraid of the citizens, not the other war around.

      They are afraid of the citizens, that’s why they want to be able to read all the messages.

        I think they’re saying that they are supposed to be (i.e., this doesn’t need fixing). If they “fix” it, the people will be afraid of the government.
