Encryption Bill Could Threaten Ireland’s National Security, Experts Warn

Experts say Ireland’s proposed encryption legislation could put citizens and businesses at risk. Ryan Polk emphasized that undermining encryption would make sensitive data vulnerable to cyberattacks and fraud. Platforms offering end-to-end encryption may have to either weaken their services or exit the Irish market, potentially reducing privacy and security for millions of users.

Experts are right to raise alarms — national security starts with strong encryption, not compromised privacy.
