Frankly, I wish we could get CA to take note, and unelect Senator Feinstein: she has been against strong encryption[1] (and in fact, on the particular bill mentioned in [1] which would require companies to decrypt user data, Ron Wyden tweeted, "I will do everything in my power to block Burr-Feinstein anti-encryption bill. It makes Americans less safe."); she co-sponsored PIPA[2]; and said, "I don't look at [Snowden's acts] as being a whistleblower. I think it's an act of treason" [3] despite being the Chairwoman of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence when the then-DNI lied about whether the NSA was spying on Americans — revelations we learned about because of Snowden. (And again, we find Ron Wyden! He's the very person who asked the question "Does the NSA collect any type of data at all on millions or hundreds of millions of Americans?") Alas, she got 44% of the vote in the primary, so I don't think that'll happen.
