<i>tl;dr: The ‘Assistance and Access’ bill proposes three new powers for the Australian government.<p>1. The ability to make a voluntary request for assistance from a company to get information.<p>2. To be able to demand assistance from a company in getting information.<p>3. To build new ‘backdoor features’ into the technology, which compromises user encryption.</i><p>Narrowing the focus of implications of this to DApps seems, err, strange..
