    Go away Europol. We already have enough problems to deal with around Big Tech right now without also having to worry about European police states demanding them to do away with any semblance of user privacy.

    “When we have a search warrant and we are in front of a house and the door is locked, and you know that the criminal is inside of the house, the population will not accept that you cannot enter.”

    If you already know they’re a criminal (i.e. they’re already convicted), why do you need their messages? Or are you referring to suspects as criminals? Also, likening digital communications to actual, physical, living individuals is some “You Wouldn’t Download a Car”-level fear-mongering.

    While we’re at it, let’s ban languages that aren’t understood by Europol employees. Criminals could be using them to have private conversations.

    If privacy is illegal then only criminals will have privacy. The Europeans really hate encryption don’t they.

            These are the pigeons you seek.

            After her husband was brutally murdered and she had a few thousand enemy soldiers killed, to make peace Olga asked for a small tribute from each enemy household: 3 sparrows and 3 pigeons.

            https://pigeons-of-war.com/2022/07/08/saint-olga-of-kyiv-a-pioneer-of-pigeon-warfare/

            Now Olga gave to each soldier in her army a pigeon or a sparrow, and ordered them to attach by a thread to each pigeon and sparrow a piece of sulphur bound with small pieces of cloth. When night fell, Olga bade her soldiers release the pigeons and the sparrows. So the birds flew to their nests, the pigeons to the cotes, and the sparrows under the eaves. Thus the dove-cotes, the coops, the porches, and the haymows were set on fire. There was not a house that was not consumed, and it was impossible to extinguish the flames, because all the houses caught fire at once.

            The birds flew home.

              For her efforts to Christianize Kyivan Rus, Olga has been canonized in both the Russian Orthdox and Roman Catholic churches.

              Par for the course.
