French police want to ban public WiFi during emergencies
The FBI isn’t the law enforcement agency that wants to restrict privacy for the sake of national security. Following the Paris attacks of November 13th, French police and gendarmes have submitted a wish list of security measures for a new bill, according to a document discovered by LeMonde. Among other things, police want to ban public WiFi during states of emergency, “because of the difficulty of identifying people connected to it,” said one official. Law enforcement also wants the Tor network banned completely in France and would force companies that make VoIP applications (like Skype) to hand the encryption keys to police.
