Feinstein was prominently anti-crypto in the Clipper Chip / Crypto Wars I. She's been doing this for over 20 years. I don't think she's clueless. What she knows and what she says are probably very different. Political power has little to do with displays of technical competence.
- studentrob 11y agoPerhaps I overstated it. I have only seen a few videos of her recently and I got the impression other senators in the room don't really take her seriously anymore. Maybe she was knowledgeable during CW I but her argument makes no sense in this particular case. Plus, I do believe you can be an influential person without really knowing what you're talking about. That's politics.
