I imagine that instead of beating TLS, state actors work with Cloudflare and the other CDNs who terminate the connection to listen in. (lemmy.ml)

Let’s be clear that not just any state actor can do this. We’re talking about the US, UK, rest of the eyes alliance. Snowden revealed they are the threat who operates like this and we shouldn’t forget it.

India can’t likely do this, China, Russia, Brazil, South Africa cannot do it.

I missed why China, Russia, et al cannot do it. What do you mean?
