Bugs in Our Pockets: The Risks of Client-Side ScanningThe entrance to the FBI headquarters in Washington. (Photo: Matthew Kahn) For more than two decades, U.S. law enforcement has fought against the use of strong cryptography by the public in telecommunications. In 1992, the FBI argued that due to encryption, 60 percent of criminal wiretaps would be useless within three years—and, in the worst case, none might be intelligible. Ever since the U.S. government loosened cryptographic export controls in 2000, the FBI talked of doom and gloom regarding criminal investigations due to the public’s use of encryption. Since the 1990s, the bur... read more

Labour's Time Has ComeWe're having supply chain problems these days. Paul Krugman writes that, eventually, the bottlenecks will be broken: Earlier in the pandemic, people compensated for the loss of many services by buying stuff instead. People who couldn’t eat out remodeled their kitchens. People who couldn’t go to gyms bought home exercise equipment. The result was an astonishing surge in purchases of everything from household appliances to consumer electronics. Early this year real spending on durable goods was more than 30 percent above prepandemic levels, and it’s still very high. But, when it co... read more
