Kazakhstan will require internet surveillance back doors

by John_A

Want to know why it’s a bad idea for the government to ask for back door access to your data? Here’s why. As of January 1st, Kazakhstan will require the presence of a “national security certificate” on every internet-capable device in the country. The law will let the government spy on virtually any online traffic on devices with the certificate installed, whether or not it’s encrypted. Carriers will have to keep tabs on users who don’t install the code, too, so you can’t count on slipping under the radar.
