Encryption - The Talk Of The Town
Hi Folks,
These Days you must have have about encryption,because it is now becoming a hot debate topic.
It came in to attention when everybody heard about the case between Apple and FBI.
What Is Apple Vs FBI Case?
So it happens that the whole story is revolving around a bad guy's iphone,which was protected via passcode, the fbi wanted apple to open the phone for them,
but apple refused to do that.
Eventually fbi got it opened from the tech firm in Israel, there by ending the case against apple.
(No Wonder they are FBI, they can do anything!!!!!!).
Apple issued a open letter saying it could not do it to protect user privacy.but fbi seems to got what it wanted.
Recently Whatsapp also introduced encryption in it's app,basically it encrypts every message with end to end user encryption.
what it means is that the chat you do with another user can not be intercepted, even if they are it's encrypted so it will be hard for hacker to decrypt it.
what is in it for users?
the user will get more privacy, the data of user is always protected from outsiders,
So I think encryption is good for all users, and not for them who uses private data of users,
I think it may be headache for government agencies like fbi,nsa.
Because the user base includes the bad guy also like the one in apple case,they similarly got benefit from this technology to hide their dirty plans.
But as far as normal user it doesn't matter much, cuz even if you use it there's always a loophole in the every system.
If the government want to spy on you(Like Pointed by Snowden) they can do it any way,bacuz they have resources and power to access the information.
So that's it for now,
