I don’t know how the government will be able to effectively ban E2EE and honestly I want to see them try
100%? Impossible. But they can effectively ban it.
Pass a law that makes any US company, or company doing business in the US, not allowed to host E2EE-enabled apps. This now bans them from the App Store and Play Store. 99% of users won’t find or choose to side-load for android users. Then they can make E2EE actually illegal to distribute in the US. They’ll almost never bother going after individuals, but this effectively makes hosting a US-based website unable to distribute E2EE programs. So people will need to use foreign sites. Which the US can force ISPs to block via a whack-a-mole on individual sites.
This isn’t very likely, but hell Congress was decently close to banning TikTok for no real reason so who knows?

Montana’s GOP didn’t get the memo that it’s a stupid idea.
It seems like the great firewall in china, really scary times for the freedom of the web
Tories are just trying to kick up as much shit as possible before they’re kicked out so they can blame the next party for the fallout.
In the end you need a DNS that blocks all tracking…
And every government in the world that isn’t insane would in theory ban web drm
Only gets the job done when you are at home or have a constant VPN to your home.
If you’re tech savvy enough to set up PiHole you can also set up a Wireguard VPN.
What about a fully encrypted peer to peer web?
Close, but with the added possibility to change the data (like a website/blog/chat) and not only have static data.
So on this protocol, you can have a website with a link to my website, who has a link to yours. Maybe that doesn’t sound crazy cool :-) but filecoin, IPFS etc just does not have that functionality (with them you have a key/link, and it is locked to 1 data. Fix a typo in your text and you have to redistribute a new key/link on the old web or similar, it’s totally static), and for me it’s a must if you want to provide a functioning “new web”.
Yeah I cheer on this one!
On the other hand I got a different protocol (& implementation up and running) that can be used right away. It’s like IPFS but easy to “install” (a double click and a port forward is all that’s needed), you are also in control of your data and of course you can change the data without changing the link.
Don’t get me wrong, IPFS paved the road. But today we have better ways to do things.
Guess I’ll just have to touch grass.
Google, try pulling data from me being at the park when my phone gets left at home!
