Good luck explaining that to the oppressive regime.
I don't have to. They are aware for example that all twitter api calls
had a deadline over ssl since jan 1 2014. You cannot distinguish the
intentions of the user by their (involuntary) use of encryption.
I suggest you talk to someone that's suffering from an oppressive regime
(both in terms of the stuff that they suffer, and what their regimes are
supposedly aware of).
My response is based on the lesson that I learned when I offered (a few
years ago) one of such folks an encrypted tunnel such that they could
avoid both censorship and monitoring.
Any technical explanation that you can give (no matter how correct or
true it is) is of no use if the guy suffering from an oppressive regime
is still going to have a hard time with their regime.
Thanks,
