Technology companies should no longer be able to provide encrypted messaging services that cannot be accessed in emergencies by the security services, the home secretary, Amber Rudd, said on Sunday.Speaking after it emerged that the police were investigating reports that Khalid Masood had used the encrypted WhatsApp service just before he launched the attack in Westminister, in whoch he killed four people, Rudd said it was completely unacceptable that the police and security services were shut out from messages of this kind.She also signalled a renewed determination to stop internet companies publishing extremist material online by declaring that they now had to accept they were publishing companies, with the responsibilities that went with that, not just technology firms providing a platform.
