The EU Says The Laws of Mathematics Apply in Australia
summary
EU privacy and security laws (GDPR, ePrivacy, NIS, Telecoms Code) force concrete engineering choices worldwide: up to 4% fines for failures, explicit bans on weak algorithms (RC4, SHA‑1) and no backdoors, and a state-of-the-art requirement that deprecates insecure crypto. Article 28 mandates auditable, authenticated controller‑processor contracts, effectively requiring cryptographic, non‑repudiable audit trails (blockchain‑style tokens or signed logs) and runtime checks that can drop insecure connections; Australian access laws now conflict with these technical obligations.
