So you don't believe in strong encryption?

Authored by: jbb on Wednesday, June 19 2013 @ 08:37 PM EDT

I don't see why you blame Dotcom for the blatantly illegal acts of the US and NZ governments. He had responded to legitimate DMCA take down requests until the US government asked him not to because they said it would destroy evidence in an ongoing investigation. The only thing Dotcom did wrong was fail to predict the totally insane and illegal actions by the government.

I don't understand why you don't believe in strong encryption. His new site encrypts everything with strong encryption and only the user has the key. Take down requests are still possible but only if the user has made the key public and the take down request includes the decryption key. The fact that you don't know the first thing about Dotcom's new system makes your claim that TPB has a better system rather meaningless.
