But Sir Tim said giving the authorities a key to unlock coded messages would have serious consequences.”Now I know that if you’re trying to catch terrorists it’s really tempting to demand to be able to break all that encryption but if you break that encryption then guess what – so could other people and guess what – they may end up getting better at it than you are,” he said.
