new entry: Rosenzweig on Client-side scanning #58
Description
Over in Lawfare, Paul Rosenzweig wrote a piece on law and policy related to Client-Side Scanning back in mid-2020.
While client-side scanning isn't technically about "encryption" specifically, it's clearly a part of the same debate (often characterized as an "end-run around encryption" or "a solution to 'going dark'"), and TEC would be remiss to not cover it. Rosenzweig's article covers a lot of ground in terms of technical details about how client side scanning would work (or not work) and what the legal, ethical, and technical implications would be for a range of policies related to it.
Can't say i agree with all of his framings or conclusions, but it's a fairly robust consideration of the equities involved.
