End-to-End Encrypted Photo Sharing: How Cryptee Balances Privacy, Abuse Prevention, and Legal Risk
from Techlore Talks · host Techlore
End-to-end encrypted file sharing may sound simple, but for Cryptee, it took five years to ship. In this interview, Henry sits down with John Ozbay, founder and CEO of Cryptee, to talk through why: preventing CSAM, why client-side scanning doesn't work, how Cryptee's solution was designed to raise the barrier to mass spread without compromising encryption, and the broader philosophical question of where developer liability ends and moral responsibility begins.🔗 SOURCES & LINKS• Cryptee: https://crypt.ee• Stop Chat Control: https://stopchatcontrol.eu• Open Web Advocacy: https://open-web-advocacy.org• EDRI: https://edri.org ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS(00:00) - INTRO (04:08) - E2EE SHARING HESITATIONS (14:09) - HOW IS BIG TECH HANDLING THIS?
