Pandora’s iPhone, by Stuart Carlson, 2016. Still spot-on in 2026:

A backdoor for the good guys simply does not exist. Once you build it, hackers walk through, authoritarian governments walk through, and the rest follows.

The UK is pressuring for chat control right now. EU Chat Control initiatives keep popping up. We need to keep saying NO to this!

    Love the weird scale of threat depicted here.

    -smol bean megacorporation

    -regular bean fbi man

    -Big Hacker, the big hacker lobbyist

    -giant evil FOREIGNER with their evil UNIFORM and MEDALS

    -ect, other guys, artist kind of blew his load drawing all those evil medals

    Like the scale implies I should be most worried about the biggest guy, but I live in America. The feds are the biggest threat to me. You can tell this wasn’t drawn by a leftist because…well, almost everything, but mostly because of how normal they seem to think the FBI is, and how small a deal being spied on by them apparently is compared to being spied on by someone that doesn’t have the capacity to send a death squad to my apartment at any moment.
