Re: Rudd's simple solution

Germany have sort of done this. No backdoor and no breaking of encryption, but with a warrant, they can install a trojan on a device and monitor it in real time.

Not ideal, but at least there are some balances and cotnrols, and they need physical access (currently) to install the malware and they have accepted that encryption for the Joe Public is essental in the modern age.
