IEEE Position Statement in Support of Strong Encryption [pdf]
Good to see this strong statement against backdoors being made by the IEEE. But what seems never to be mentioned in these discussions is anonymity: while I completely believe in the right of any one to send communications securely, I do not have the same belief that people should be able to be anonymous. I think there should be layers of anonymity and I should have the right to decide if I would ever receive a truly anonymously sourced message. Other identities should be protected, but subject to legal disclosure with the usual legal protections.
