Attorney General William Barr calls for Facebook to halt release of encrypted messaging program.

Attorney General Bill Barr and officials from the U.K. and Australia have penned a letter to Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg requesting the company not implement end-to-end encryption on its messaging services, citing concerns regarding threats of child exploitation and terrorism.

The letter is likely to draw criticism from civil libertarians and privacy advocates who argue that giving the government access to encrypted communications opens the door to abuse and intrusion of personal data and communications. Facebook issued a lengthy statement indicating it has no plans to comply with Barr's request, but is consulting with law enforcement and safety experts.
