eSafety Commissioner clarifies companies don't have to break E2EE to meet new industry codes

The eSafety Commissioner had a rare moment of common sense, clarifying in the final two industry codes (Designated Internet Services & Relevant Electronic Services) to specifically state that "companies will not be required to break encryption and will not be required to undertake measures not technically feasible or reasonably practical". A change from previous wording where it was vague if "feasible" meant financially or technically, because for a company like Apple or Google, there really is no financial limit as to what they can spend as they have more money than God. You can read more about the changes to these two industry standards on eSafety's website.
