Don't you just love it when the justification for fascism becomes, "What about the kids?" I am not saying that this is necessarily the case in this instance, but it's a common refrain for breaking technology and taking away rights by the authoritarian state.
"Of course we have to spy on you, there's terrorists out there".
Truth is, terrorists can fight for freedom. Terrorism isn't always bad. As a french, I'm well aware of the need for revolt
One man's terrorism is another man's freedom. It's all about perspective and what the person has to gain or lose.
One man's terrorist is another man's freedom fighter.
Gotta love fighting terrorism by making terrorists more sympathetic.
Terrorists and authoritarian governments are each others' greatest allies even though both pretend otherwise. Each one uses the other to endear itself to the people and justify atrocities that they would otherwise never get away with, all in the name of protecting you from the other one.

I am not saying that this is necessarily the case in this instance
It's literally stated in the article. And terrorism of course.
