Prediction: headlines in 2040 will look like:
- "EU bans sale of 'non-approved' phones and laptops"
- "Australia cracking down on illegal computation"
- "New 'client-side safeties' mandated for all devices produced for sale in USA"
Governments can't tolerate our ability to circumvent them with code. The EU is already trying to force backdoors into E2EE messengers. Someday they will escalate to banning general-purpose computing hardware because it can do things they don't like: deepfakes, bitcoin, encryption, TOR.
Draconian laws will never stop coming, but we dont have to stop them - We need only slow them down enough that we can out-engineer their weak-ass laws.
