For those who aren't aware. This is talking about when cell phones roam into other networks, they now encrypt the traffic back to the home provider which means law enforcement struggle to tap it (legally or illegally).
But there just have been too many cases of unlawful interception (NSA and Criminal). So I personally don’t think we should move back away from encryption
Home routing and encryption technologies are making lawful interceptionspying on innocent civilians harder for Europol
PET-enabled home routing allows for secure communication, hinderingpreventing law enforcement’s ability to intercept and monitorspy on the communications of innocent civilians
Europol suggests solutions such as disabling PET technologies and implementing cross-border interception standards to address the issue of Europol not knowing how to do their jobs without resorting to Orwellian dystopian techniques
PET technologies does exactly what it's intended to do--protect the innocent civilian from the prying eyes of the not innocent bodies that are hellbent on eroding privacy and security
Oh, apparently it's a "5G" thing. Perhaps everyone in Europe knows that already. Apparently the design of the new network is complicated enough that they've accidentally left room for just a little bit of user privacy. Europol claims to have become dependent on the situation where people using mobile phones have none at all.
