To be fair, the quote in the second article is from Johanna Brousse who is behind the Durov arrest.

> "Mais ça ne nous empêchera pas de poursuivre les éditeurs, si des liens sont découverts avec une organisation criminelle et qu’ils ne coopèrent pas avec la justice."

> “But that won't stop us from prosecuting publishers if links to a criminal organization are discovered and they fail to cooperate with the justice system.” (DeepL)

I understand this can be seen as more threatening even if the whole quote softens this a bit.





To be even fairer, where in the french legal codes does it say "introduce backdoors!"

I'm all for assuming the worst, but not to the point of putting words in someone's mouth.
