After her husband was brutally murdered and she had a few thousand enemy soldiers killed, to make peace Olga asked for a small tribute from each enemy household: 3 sparrows and 3 pigeons.
Now Olga gave to each soldier in her army a pigeon or a sparrow, and ordered them to attach by a thread to each pigeon and sparrow a piece of sulphur bound with small pieces of cloth. When night fell, Olga bade her soldiers release the pigeons and the sparrows. So the birds flew to their nests, the pigeons to the cotes, and the sparrows under the eaves. Thus the dove-cotes, the coops, the porches, and the haymows were set on fire. There was not a house that was not consumed, and it was impossible to extinguish the flames, because all the houses caught fire at once.

“When we have a search warrant and we are in front of a house and the door is locked, and you know that the criminal is inside of the house, the population will not accept that you cannot enter.”
If you already know they’re a criminal (i.e. they’re already convicted), why do you need their messages? Or are you referring to suspects as criminals? Also, likening digital communications to actual, physical, living individuals is some “You Wouldn’t Download a Car”-level fear-mongering.

If privacy is illegal then only criminals will have privacy. The Europeans really hate encryption don’t they.
Guess what. The real criminals are the police and the politicians
But that’s old news isn’t it
Be careful. The truth is illegal too.
Yea, don’t wanna catch a car bomb :p
