Are you of the opinion that all beliefs are above ridicule, or just this one? Because in my opinion the idea of a government controlled key escrow is the most stupid thing I've heard suggested and its proponents are either willfully ignorant or just insane. Recent history is full of major failures on the part of the USG to properly safeguard data of the most sensitive nature, as well as cases where they had collected clear text intel and just failed to connect the dots. So there is nothing to gain and everything to lose; they have enough data, they should work on their analytics before they endeavor to intentionally weaken everybody's security.
