They're not going to ban encryption. Seriously. Stop wasting time on misquotes taken out of context blown up by The Guardian. There's more important things to worry about.

The point of this petition, even though it looks at first blush to be taking down a straw man, is to send a shot across the bow.

Either:

a) they ban all end-to-end encryption

or

b) this law is ridiculously easy to circumvent for even non-technical users

An example of b) would be: piggyback messaging on an existing service that has a valid reason for being encrypted

[nailer]

Mandating back doors is banning effective encryption.
