Australia are drafting a bill that is proposing to give the keys to anyone who has encrypted digital information on any smart device through tech companies (your apps). The "draft" bill propose:
Quote
1. Creates obligations on technology producers and communication providers, forcing them to work for law enforcement agencies;
2. Creates powers that would allow police to seize information directly from a device; and
3. Allows government operatives to access more data through current warrants.[/quuote]

Two great overviews:

What will this mean for BTC? Will this bill be passed?

My input...
Protect your privacy. Protect your human rights. This policy not only applies for Australia, but all countries apart of the Five Eyes alliance
