This tool is developed for France's administration, not for the public. They host the servers. So I don't think e2ee is indeed a requirement.

Shouldn't it be the other way around? I'd expect e2ee to be a requirement for anything for the administration even if their laws are a little funky (rules for thee not for me, etc).

  1. A tool used by a state employer only wouldn't need e2ee, since they hold all the servers.
  2. The French government has long been trying to make encryption in use by its citizens inspectable by them (the French government)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
