Indeed, the official confirmed that law enforcement wants the bill specifically because it would provide an opportunity to access encrypted communications. The exodus of tech companies, which now also includes DuckDuckGo, can be expected to continue." Police State?: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5bHo6PUFJE0
