Why do governments keep telling us they have the right to access our private information⁠?

Enrique Dans criticizes the UK government's demand for access to user data on Apple's iCloud. Dans argues this move undermines privacy by forcing Apple to remove end-to-end encryption for UK users, making their data accessible to authorities. He contends that this action equates the UK government's approach to that of authoritarian regimes like China. Dans asserts that attacking encryption is a common tactic by politicians, who seek to appear tough on crime but ultimately harm citizens' rights, while also stating that encryption is necessary for security. He believes governments shouldn't have the authority to compromise the technology that protects our privacy.This article is also available in English on my Medium page, «Why do governments keep telling us they have the right to access our private information?»
