Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

CDT polling of 2,000 UK adults found 53% judge encryption-access security risks greater than law-enforcement benefits. 84% fear hidden access would create exploitable vulnerabilities, fraud, data leaks, and cybercrime. The findings follow Apple's tribunal challenge to UK Technical Capability Notices after a demand for encrypted iCloud access.
