This is top-down enforcement just like everything else.
They can't fine Hive.
They can't stop Hive from using end to end encryption.
Legislation like this is 100% targeting centralized WEB2 platforms.
Best they can do is remove programs from app stores or at worst IP block websites.
No, they don't give a fuck about hive, they control your OS, they'll steal your keys by requiring that they vet everything BEFORE encryption, that they see all that you're trying to encrypt.
They'll gleefuly subvert your community if they believe you're a retard threat with CP and then point at the CP and the network which facilities it and the people will demand that none is allowed to use your network, so good luck finding any one to do business with in the Western world, not that the West wants business with hive to begin with, but there's plenty of sellers in the other parts of the world where hive is seemingly more popular.
Fascinating. How are they going to read the data before I encrypt it when the data is encrypted on an offline device?
And then filtered through a QR code airgap.
That would be a pretty neat trick.
Certainly not impossible but pretty unlikely.
Why do you so smugly predict that we are all doomed to 1000 years of eternal darkness?
Maybe you should prepare yourself for war instead of being such a nay-saying punk all the time.
Or have you just decided that living that slave life is the way to go from here on out?
Understandable if so, but disappointing.
