Simple solution don’t sell your products in New York anymore … They can go back to the stone age for all I care … honestly I’m tired of this … They understand by doing something like this they put more people in danger of fraud … Politicians need to get over themselves, they are not gods and just because they can’t as easily snoop on people as they have been since phones were invented they try to one up with this crap. The real Criminals will have strong encryption no matter what. It’s public knowledge and easy to implement and now it’s even easier to build your own phone with working sim … Beaglebone, raspberry phi, mino, etc… This stuff is cheap and you can customize a version of android that would omit this back door very easily … It’s open source. Anyone who is for this and thinks it will actually work on criminals is a complete moron.
