a truly secure internet is not in the common interest of freedom, nor in the interest of software producers—a curious statement, but one that is true.

Privacy is one of the cornerstones of freedom and civil liberty, and a truly secure internet would bring about an end to privacy, and thus an end to freedom—at least in the sense that we understand it today.
