>India's fifth largest ISP, YOU Broadband, is among several of the country's ISPs that have been trying to prevent customers from using meaningful encryption.
>According to the company's updated terms of service, as a customer of the ISP you're supposed to avoid using encryption to allow for easier monitoring of your online behavior.
>Indian ISPs are simply adhering to a misguided (and still not adequately updated) set of 2007 guidelines imposed by India's Department of Telecommunications demanding that ISPs prevent their subscribers from using any encryption with greater than a 40 bit key length if they want to do business in India:
>"Individuals/Organizations are permitted to use encryption upto 40 bit key length without having to obtain permission from the Licensor. However, if encryption equipments higher than this limit are to be deployed, individuals/organizations shall do so with the prior written permission of the Licensor and deposit the decryption key, split into two parts, with the Licensor"

How do big sites like Google work there if that's the case?

"tech news" is just outsourced PR for the gadget industry

So... HTTPS flat out won't work in India due to all modern forms of encryption using way more than 40 bits for a key?
We should work towards a global standard of making every website use HTTPS only and AES 256 as the standard choice of symmetric encryption.
>>
>>61449306
If every site is HTTPS does that mean no more pajeets?
>>
>>61446903
How does that work? I am not aware of any browser or server supporting any cipher or public key algorithm with 40 bits of security.
Also, this can literally be brute-forced in a home computer, so what is the point?
>>
>>61449306
No, Chacha20, Keccak, etc are trillion times better than the AES monstrosity.
Also, most sites for unknown reasons default to GCM 128 bit AES.
