The request was made <a href=\"http:\/\/fortune.com\/2018\/08\/17\/doj-facebook-break-encryption-tap-messenger-calls\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">due to an investigation<\/a> into the international MS-13 gang.<\/p>\n<p>The demand is believed to have been made under the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.law.cornell.edu\/uscode\/text\/18\/part-I\/chapter-119\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Wiretap Act<\/a>, which allows US law enforcement to intercept oral communications in some cases, but considering the law has not kept up with the development of electronic communication, interpretation of this legislation in today&#8217;s world can be a murky affair.<\/p>\n<p><strong>See also:&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/facebook-harvested-1-5-million-user-email-contacts-without-permission\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Facebook harvested 1.5 million user email contacts without permission<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Facebook protested and after denying the DoJ&#8217;s demand, the department attempted to hold Facebook in contempt of court.<\/p>\n<section class=\"sharethrough-top\" data-component=\"medusaContentRecommendation\" data-medusa-content-recommendation-options=\"{&quot;promo&quot;:&quot;promo_ZD_recommendation_sharethrough_top_in_article_desktop&quot;,&quot;spot&quot;:&quot;dfp-in-article&quot;}\">\n<\/section>\n<p>The judge in the original case denied the DoJ&#8217;s wishes, but as everything has been kept under seal, the EFF says &#8220;the public has no way of knowing how the government tried to justify its request or why the judge turned it down &#8212; both of which could impact users&#8217; ability to protect their communications from prying eyes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>EFF, ACLU, and Pfefferkorn argue that US citizens have First Amendment and common law rights to access court records relating to the rules that govern them, and in Facebook&#8217;s case, the vast amount of personal data the company holds makes transparency even more crucial.<\/p>\n<p><strong>CNET:&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnet.com\/news\/us-customs-and-border-protection-says-traveler-images-were-taken-in-subcontractor-cyber-attack\/?ftag=CMG-01-10aaa1b\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">US Customs and Border Protection says traveler images were taken in cyberattack<\/a><\/p>\n<p>A previous motion to unseal the documents failed, leading to the EFF&#8217;s new appeal.<\/p>\n<p>If Facebook was forced to break its own encryption standards and place what could be considered a deliberate backdoor into its own products, not only would the company have yet-another privacy and security disaster on its hands, but there would be implications for other companies, too.<\/p>\n<p>Law enforcement agencies <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/the-encryption-wars-are-back-but-this-time-its-different\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">in the US and beyond<\/a> have been fighting the implementation of encryption in communication services for years. While these agencies often argue that encryption can prevent successful criminal investigations and prosecutions, critics say that implanting weaknesses in these systems opens the door not only for government snooping but for cyberattackers, too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>TechRepublic:&nbsp;<\/strong><a
