The "Five Eyes" intelligence alliance demanded Sunday that tech companies insert "backdoors" in encrypted apps to allow law enforcement agencies the access they say they need to police online criminality.

「五眼」情報聯盟週日要求科技公司在加密應用程式中安裝「後門」，好讓執法機關得以進入管轄線上犯罪問題。

The top justice officials of the United States, Britain, Australia, Canada and New Zealand said in a statement that the growth of end-to-end encrypted apps that make official oversight impossible － like Signal, Telegram, FaceBook Messenger and WhatsApp － "pose significant challenges to public safety."

美國、英國、澳洲、加拿大和紐西蘭的高層司法官員透過聲明表示，通訊平台Signal、Telegram、臉書旗下Messenger和WhatsApp這類「端對端」加密應用程式的成長，讓官方監督成為不可能的事，「對公共安全構成重大挑戰」。

"While encryption is vital and privacy and cyber security must be protected, that should not come at the expense of wholly precluding law enforcement, and the tech industry itself, from being able to act against the most serious illegal content and activity online," they said.

他們說：「雖然加密相當重要，隱私權和網路安全也必須獲得保障，但不應該犧牲到完全排除執法，以及讓科技產業無力對抗最嚴重線上非法內容及活動的地步。」

They called on tech companies to "embed the safety of the public in system designs," providing access to law enforcement "in a readable and usable format."

他們呼籲科技公司「將公共安全嵌入系統設計內」，「以易讀且可使用的格式」讓執法單位得以進入。
