Hello!
Various governments around the world - including the US and EU - want
to have backdoors in encryption technology.
Is there anything known how FOSS developers will deal with that?
Especially if they are enforced to implement backdoors.
If I would be forced, which I doubt, I would comment the code
with something like this:
// backdoor begins here
backdoor code
// backdoor ends here
and put in the README how to exchange that code with proper one.
