Encryption technology sought to protect personal privacy, but Lawmakers like Joe Biden and President Clinton pushed hard to regulate and even ban it, fearing that criminals could use it to communicate in secret. This sparked a decades-long debate: Who gets control?

Should we rely on lessons from the past, or are new strategies needed?
