You're seeing that because it's above the table. I think other large countries are simply doing it under the table. I think the NSA/CIA basically own Microsoft and Google encryption whenever they want.

A good rule is: If you don't want it read, don't store it on someone else's servers with someone else's encryption keys.

We know about the NSA backdoor into every is tech company. We should assume the eu has the same deals in place.

How did the EU manage to keep their back doors secret where the USA didn't?

How long was the US backdoor secret for?
