It has been explained to them multiple times in congressional hearings. If you have a long time, the recent House Judiciary Committee Hearing is worth the watch: The Encryption Tightrope: Balancing Americans’ Security and Privacy https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1GgnbN9oNw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1GgnbN9oNw There was another one that I watched back in June, but I cannot find the video at the moment. Should have bookmarked it! In the rietta.com article, I linked the this hearing, starting with Susan Landau's testimony starting at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1GgnbN9oNw&t=3h35m50s https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g1GgnbN9oNw&t=3h35m50s. But there is more must watch portions of the hearing. I like GnuPG and I use it regularly with work as does my team. And some of our clients do too, but not nearly enough. But my mom and dad are never going to use it. They do both use iPhones though. So being able to protect them is important.
