In a meeting with state government spooks. I have a love/hate relationship with my job. Basically, they are baiting us with statewide contracts if we build backdoors for the gov to be able to pull data when wanted on our users. If we say no, they will basically force us to comply anyways.

Sometimes hard to be a software developer, lately. đź«‚

Avoid all mainstream/big tech at all costs... got it

We arent big tech, we are a startup. We just so happened to stumble onto something that the gov took interest in...our hands are tied. the only thing we can do is build a back back door, but im already saying too much on my already super doxxed profile

When are companies going to start standing for actual morals instead of printed fiat money to make peoples lives “easier”. Reality is gonna be really hard when these chickens come home to roost.

What thing are you working so we can all avoid it?

unfortunately, i probably gave too much info already, however, right now it only affects "top tier" criminals. unfortunately, that definition can be changed depending who is in power
