Just as it did with Sweden, Signal is refusing to stay in a territory that undermines its encryption strategy, arguing that a backdoor in France would undermine protections for users worldwide.
Signal is standing its ground to protect its app’s security, threatening on Wednesday to leave France if encryption backdoor requirements are enacted, just as it said it would do in Sweden.
“Those hyping this bad law have rushed to assure French politicians that the proposal isn’t breaking encryption. Their arguments are as tedious as they are stale, as they are laughable. For those catching up, let’s review the basics: end to end encryption must only have two ends—sender and recipients. Otherwise, it is backdoored,” wrote Signal CEO Meredith Whittaker in a post on X.
