John and J-C Le Toquin finally and conclusively solve the age-old conflict between cyber-privacy and security!

No, not really.

Rather, we have an interesting discussion of the history, context, and current considerations around this highly contentious topic. How should society, legislators, and law enforcement balance the right to privacy with the need for effective investigations? How can we give law enforcement and intelligence agencies the means for effectively tracking various types of miscreants, including child abusers, terrorists, and miscellaneous other cybercriminals, without violating citizens' ability to protect their communications, including from potentially abusive governments?

Jean-Christophe Le Toquin is a managing partner at SOCOGI in Paris, France. He is co-founder of CyAN, as well as its President and member of the board of directors. As a veteran advisor in the fight against cybercrime and online child abuse, he is President of INHOPE, a global network of hotlines for the combat of Child Sexual Abuse Materials (CSAM), as well as Coordinator of Encryption Europe.
