The New York Times comes out against encrypted apps like Signal using the classic arguments of terrorism and CSAM but puts their unique anti-tech spin on it by arguing

Helllooo!!! Just because we want our #security doesn't mean we're doing something nefarious.

Me: Why do you ask about my security? Are you having trouble getting a warrant?
